Thanks guys. Like Jay said machine shop screwed me over big time. So thats the reason for lack of updates will update again once I get the block back this time. Hopefully will be soon, this has been project is 2yrs in the making so it will be all worth it at the end.
Bill I still remember when you first got the car, what a MAJOR difference between then and now...
So what happened? What did they do to your block? Any knee caps broken yet?

Well funny story really ok not really but basically the crank originally needed a grinding. Well as we were putting it together me and jay had a discussion of whether to double check the clearances or not and I was like naw I'm sure it is fine they had to be checked at the shop. Well guess whats wrong lol. So in the end it is my fault for ASSUMING and the machine shops fault for fucking something up during the grinding process. So it is all being re-done as we speak and this time will double check everything. Live and Learn I guess.
I hate trusting other peoples work....
Good luck this time 'round, Bill. Hope it works out for you.

Fuckin right! It's cars like these that deserve notice in one way or another. I've known Floto for years, and it's great to see him stay with this project. I've been there from since the shell showed up, to engine going in, to back out, and now waiting on "final" time, lol. Keep it up bro,ForcedTorque said:

Update: not much new 75% of stuff is back from the machine shop getting a few final touches done then it will be ready for assembly. Just don't know how much time I'm going to have to get with jay to get it all together and done, other priorities at the moment.
