Hey Brian, that looks badass! Oh and I like your cylinder heads and valve covers

I first noticed the cam specs and though, "that's a lot of cam." Then I looked up the specs for those heads. Yeah, that's not a lot of cam at all. In this day and age of big-inch SBCs and LSs, it's easy to forget how amazing the BBC can be. I'm guessing you're going to hit the higher end of your power estimate. Good luck! And we want videos with full sound!

That is why I like BBC for drag cars and even hot street cars, it is amazing the amount of power you can get out of those engines. The heads flow very well and the power at streetable RPM ranges is amazing.

Do you have any photos of it sitting on the ground? I am curious if you are running a 15x14 rear wheel or larger?
