    Finally got the SBC back from the machine shop. It’s built to run, 30 over 350 with Comp extreme 282 roller
    cam, eagle 6” rods, forged pistons, Blueprint 64cc heads dialed in at 9.5 to 1 compression. Should be a fun little ride.
    All buttoned up temporarily for the trip home from Texas to Kentucky. Gonna be about 8 or so months before I’m back at it again. Stay tuned…

  2. Really great looking photos @Hotrod31A! Any ideas for headers?

    Good on you for pushing on, surprised about the results from blasting?

    Gonna start with baffling the lake style headers first and go from there.

    Yes I was, I knew most of these places like the driver’s quarter were toast but not to the extent it is. Also pretty impressive despite all the swiss cheese how structurally sound these spots still are. It’s true that don’t make em like they used to.
