427 C5R shortblock.....progress pic.

Here's a pic of my Morgan Motorsports 427 C5R shortblock in the cleanroom. My car is progressing along and the motor goes in next week...then the 4 core aluminum radiator/oil cooler, D1 ATI S/C, and 3" exhaust. Soon......"King Kong" will be alive and breathing fire. I'll post more pics as the project develops. :cheers:

That is an awesome picture!

Do you have any at higher res? It'd be great wallpaper, but I use 1600x1200 at home, and 2048x1440 at work, so the biggest pic you've got would be great.

Thanks,
:cheers:
