YOU couldn't be more correct, I enjoy the engine build more than, well, I do like the look after shooting fresh paint, but it almost feels like you've created life, after you've put the motor together. I ported the heads on this one, I mean I opened it up almost to the max, and the cam specs are unknown other than its bigger than stock but not over .500 lift, so I suspect 484 lift and 284 druation, which will be fine.

I posted pictures of it, the truck was in remarkable sheet metal condition, no one wanted it, so I went and got it, and the Engine was a surprise, another forum member, decided she wanted a Big Block, so I picked it up from her, surprisingly good shape, clean, very clean, as if it had been tanked. I may have it finished with fresh paint in the next 2 weeks. :banghead

Fred will be here this year in a Sweptline, he's meeting up with a truck or some trucks from Canada, in Montana and they are coming down together, he's puttin in some seriuos miles. But not to worry, next year it will still be FREE, and company sponsorship to get the word out to the hundreds or thousands of truck owners who are out there! :dance
