Glad she fired up for ya! Definatly a good feeling.

Headers are in! Actually been done since about 6ish but had to barbecue some cow soooo.I F**King hate dealing with headers.Thankfully i bought Dougs,no leaks and they stay tight and fit very well(dougs reps plz paypall me).Can change the 710 fluid filter and the starter without F ing around.More pics..Anyone have a mini starter they want to sell? tomorrow i have to fix a wire terminal that broke off my starter because i forgot it weights 1000lbs....LOL

Thanks Bro! Headers go in today,route the wiring etc...etc....etc...LOL

Just hope it runs as good as it looks lol.I think it was about 1am when we called it quits...back to work....

Back to work...

Hmmmmm i thought i posted pics of the motor..We ran it on my buddys test stand couple weeks ago.anyway here are some pics.

Been waiting for this!! now the motor and trans are going in tonight! 2400ish stall 13inch continental Pontiac special.

Not Safe For Looking? idk...

Justa reading back,any A-body people reading this thread here is a pic of the body location guides..Marked in red arrows..

Thank you sir for the goodie bag! This is definatley going to be a great summer! i went to my buddys today and the beast will be fired up friday.Had some unexpected issues with the the engine on the break in....My buddy has it all squared away though.Power Tour is coming up fast and i need to get my ass in gear! Just waiting to drop the engine in and button it all up,put some miles on it to work out any bugs and Roll Hard or Die Lame! So far the only thing i know i will have issues with will be the rear end and thats only if i drive it hard.I put new bearings and seals in it 2 yrs ago so it should be fine for now.Ford 9 inch is in the future plans.Wish i had some updates but really just waiting on the engine...May 4th GM tech center swap meet i heard,hope to see some of you there!

Takes some Skillz to tackle that,Nice work!

F**KING Hilarious! Epic!

The guy on the right looks shady,better check his work..LOL

96's can be found reasonably priced.cleaned new seats etc..on a 455 will be pump gas friendly and shouldnt break the bank either.I would fill the heat crossover either way.Just depends on where ya live type of driving.

Sorry,i posted the wrong part of his site.some reason i cant post the correct one..Look around at that site you'll find the head chart and CR charts.

You should measure the chambers to find out what you have.some 6x's are as high as 111cc's.also depends if the PO has milled them,here is a great site http://www.wallaceracing.com/engine1.htm

Looks real good to me.Big improvement.

Post the finished pics...I love before and after pics.

I almost had a vette in a round about, around here LOL Like to see the rims mounted etc..gonna look fat!

Clean it well and weld a cheap extension to the plug and back it up..

Does look good.

Over there..

Welcome to FP!.I'm too old to help you,but others here certainly can.Any pics?

DONE with this part! Should have a very productive weekend.install gas tank,hook up the parking brakes,cables basically reassemble it LOL
