Yea deffinatly make a vid of breaking in the new motor.  I cant wait to fire it up.  I just got a $500 distributor for $103 on ebay.  Just waiting on that and a water pump.  Few other misc belts throttle cable linkage holder plug wires trans fluid.  Think thats all.

You utter, utter b*stard, not the I'm jealous or anything.

I don't think I've been a good enough boy for Santa to bring me a 455  :-[ :-[

It looks like you've been a very good boy this year.

That's awesome. I love how everything is black except the engine, it just pops so well. The wires and the looms really set off too. What kind of intake is that?

Nice work! Is this all going to fit under the shaker, or are you going with a different hood?
