Thanks guys, I appreciate the positive inspiration. I am going to keep things moving on this and have this running this year and racing next year.

You know it won't be able to move that vehicle under its own power without a certain young female toddler wanting to ride in it. Gonna install a place to mount a restraint seat? LOL!

I will have to make plans to make that happen Chad, she already loves to get in it and act as if she's racing it.

The engine is currently being built at this time to my specs. Working on finishing up some body work to get it to the spray booth. No new photos at this time.

Here are a few current photos taken today. Taking a little longer than I wanted but I couldn't use the other cam I had so i had to order a custom grind billet cam. Not running a belt drive so the block needed to be machined for the timing chain. Short block will be finished the beginning of next week and the intent of the long block to be finished by the end of the week. I'm pretty sure I will run into needing to mill the intake because the heads have been milled and the block has been decked (.150). Crank is in the block, rods and pistons have been mated and went with a 9 key way billet true double roller timing chain. Currently file fitting the rings with the correct gap for NOS. Took the oil pan, timing cover, gaskets and intake bolts to the shop today as well. My expectations from this combo is mid to low 9's naturally aspirated and mid 8's on the bottle.

Thanks, yours looks like it is coming along as well. I just want to be running by this coming spring. I have never owned a car of this nature but have always wanted a mini tubbed coupe. It will be a whole other ball game but look forward to the experience. I have always wanted something like this since I was a teenager working on my dads cars (Mopar). Looking forward to getting my license and having some kick ass fun.
