this guy was local to me and I got a good vibe after talking to him. Not a lot of research just gut feeling. My gut is big so I hope it led me down the right road....

gottcha! I understand... thats why i went with the ford racing engine, because i did not have a good gut feeling about anyone near here! :) LOL.

Good luck with it, looks awesome!

At the risk of correcting you, she is far too beautiful to be a boy. Perhaps a very, very beastly thing of beauty?

Well done on the recent addition to the family (regardless of gender)!!

May she give you years of trouble free work and unlimited go-fast!

Regards,

Steve

Nice Steve,
I was waiting for a post like that! As i was typing I knew "boy" didn't sound right. Ha. I gues i'll name him/her "Pat"

I remember a Bill Cosby joke about his daughter being born but he wanted a boy so he blew into her mouth hoping to make the inny into an outy.......

Jim, awesome buddy, the motor looks awesome. I was thinking on if there is anything else you need to do before dropping it in, the only thing I did was to do a rough wire on the dash harness so that when the engine went in I was ready to start it the next day.
