Mattsv8 Posted October 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 nope its the one im modding now for the blazer. dude it was perfect inside. scat cast crank, and x rods all stock bore and stroke. got some pistons for it speed pro 11.88 and new cam and bunch of other parts. should be a great little motor. bunch of pics of what ive done so far. http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d71/Mattsv8_03/SSPX4101.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d71/Mattsv8_03/SSPX4102.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d71/Mattsv8_03/SSPX4103.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d71/Mattsv8_03/SSPX4104.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d71/Mattsv8_03/SSPX4105.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d71/Mattsv8_03/SSPX4095.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d71/Mattsv8_03/SSPX4096.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d71/Mattsv8_03/SSPX4097.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d71/Mattsv8_03/SSPX4099.jpg im picking up the block in a few minutes got a hot tank and new freeze plugs and cam bearings. mostly needed cam bearings were pitted. all other bearings and crank are perfect! thinking of a performer intake and holley 650dp carb. or one of my 600 edelbrocks or the 780 q jet. ill have to play with that. im going to convert the 650 to e85. and add a electric pump. that way i can spray and never wory about detonation.!!!!!

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 That is the 2nd time I have ever seen that anodizing paint turn out good. Props to you sir. I am debating on doing my valve cover anodized gold, or having it powder coated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattsv8 Posted December 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 the only thing about the paint that is hard. is its easy to scratch so you have to wipe with a very soft terry towel thats clean. other than that so far it looks prety sweet i cant wait to hear it uncapped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattsv8 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 got to drive it for the first time today! all i can say is at 1/4 throttle it pulls harder than the 355 nos motor did when it had double humps on it. they were unported and it went 11.50s at 117. this thing feels way stronger. its gona be a wheel stander i think. gona order the caltracks. and 9 " in a few months.
