Update
Dropped stuff off at the machine shop so the crank can be balanced, block can be decked, and cam can be degreed in so I know where it needs to be installed at for correct intake centerline.

Libertys says they should be mailing me all the gears next week. I’m not holding my breath because they originally said they’d be done before Thanksgiving. But I guess they didn’t specify which Thanksgiving.

Took a 3 hour ride today to visit the car at Billys(the guy doing the chassis work). He’s taking his time and doing a nice job. He needed me there so we could see where the seat needed to be and test fit a few things. It’s funny I always go out there thinking we’re going to work on the car, but he wants to drive around and show me stuff. It’s fun so I can’t complain. And he’s being very very very fair with me for everything he’s doing. I’ll need to take a ride up there in a couple weeks to help him weld the cage in and start on the ladder bars.

I’m trying really hard to stick with the AMC 390 powerplant. But truth be told I’ve always wanted to piece together a “junkyard” 426 hemi(used up race parts put together) and before the motor plates go in I’m trying really hard not to look for a used beat up block just to see how it would fit with the 18 spline a833 I already have.

I also really want to find an Enderle birdcatcher, pump, and plate to mechanically inject the blower engine instead of using 2 carbs. But I’ll just keep an eye out.
