i suggest using stage 8 locking bolts on those headers there worth it

 

hey its starting to look like something, and i likey
the only thing id do differently, if it was my motor is a gear drive for the timing, with straight cut gears, just because they sound cool

 

Thanks man Now I know what you guys are always talking about with the "fastman" stuff.


And just my prefernce but I hate the sound of timing gears. I would rather replace my timing chain every other year (which I plan to do as schedueld maintance) than listen to timing gears. but thats just me. Well out to the shop to keep woring on the motor. lets see what I get done today.

Ok got it installed up to the intake and the valve covers.

this week I will wrap up some odds and ends and also painting the motor. P.S. Looks sweet on the enginge stand with the headers on it.!!!! Will post a pic when its painted!

 

I couldnt help myself. Here is a pic or two.

 

You're running a Kegger with a 408??

 

Yeah for now. I have spent close to 2000 on unexpected things with this truck/motor build. I drilled my heads for la intakes so I could pick up a performer rpm for about what 200$. Maybe in the near future.

 

looking good man, just please tell me your gonna clean that keg up, and im not talking about drinkin one full of beer either, although that sounds like fun right now

 

Looking good. I'm just about at the same point with mine. I'll take some pic's later and post. I see no problems with running the keg, I'll be doing the same on mine lol.
