I have started gathering parts to build a large journal 302. This is the engine this car needs to really work. The 350 is made to move a truck, where as a 302 makes the best balance of HP and torque. Ya the parts are expensive about 3 times the cost of a 350 but you only live once. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
I'll keep you V-8 guys posted! |

Well I have the engine in, everything all clean and painted. This one car garage thing is a big pain (IMG:style_emoticons/default/alfred.gif) . I have to make a reservation with the neighbors before starting and braking in the cam etc. My next door neighbor is a real pain in the A*S. Has me down at my town-home board meetings due to noise, there are two homes closer and they have no issues but "SHE" does. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Lets see my shoulders hurt, back, neck, from trying to be quiet.
I would love to put a real burner in, but thats for later, now I'll just keep my head down and enjoy this engine. I have another project looming, my Fiat X19 9 is getting a Honda K20 and a 5 speed. That should push out about 220 hp and be a quick as the 914. I may start that in a few months. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) |
