My build
I posted these over in the Tech section but I thought I would share with y'all and maybe help answer any questions if anybody is in the middle of this stuff.
The motor is a 404 with ET heads and a 236/242 cam. It ran well N/A at sea level but needed more up here at 6000'. JT Trim at 10 psi with an air to water intercooler. Those are corrected numbers, so up here I'm not really feeling that power but probably a hundred less on both sides. Up here you need to make a hundred horse more than you need. At sea level this is going to be a sick ride.

Wheels are IForged like Jeremy's. I have about 15 different ways I fabbed up to mount the coils. In the end they are actually zip tied up and under stuff and you can barely see them. I like the clean look. The valve covers are good ole GM performance parts, $99 a pop. They do not have a PCV vent on them so you have to tap a brass fitting or weld honkin 12AN fittings to a catch can like I did.

Pretty good chance this si going to be for sale so if you know any interested parties PM me. I'm a builder not an owner. When they are done I get this post partum depression thing. I create what I think is perfect then just want to build another.
