OK guys..its alive!!!..came to life this afternoon and had a nice smooth break in..no real problems..a couple of leaky fuel lines and a cranky distributor, sounds real strong..quick first pull with 34 degrees, the carb out of the box, the valves a little noisey and the dyno distributor..633 hp @ 6100..648 tq @4500...were thinking there may be 20-30 more left in it..well play more tomorrow..I'm stoked!

Hey Al,
I have had AL do motors for me for close to 20 years. As far as I am concerned there is none better in the area. He has done 30 plus motors for me never a problem. He's like Doc from &quot;Back to the Future&quot;. Some of the recents have been 3 67 L-71's stock looking and passed NCRS judging but they now have 580-590 HP. Did a few 302's in the 460-470 HP range. You name it he can do it.
Rich
