Nabbs see sig, but I am getting the G5X3 cam and the AFR heads. I already replaced the stock clutch with the RPS clutch and changed the stock gears over to 4.10s.
It will be close to Don B's setup minus a few things so I am hoping for about 430-440RWHP with the 4.10s. If I had smaller gears I am sure I would see 450RWHP.

[Wicked Weasel]Believe me, I am worried about it getting done, but Marc said it will not be a problem. Chris seemed to think it will get done too that is why I left it there. It takes Marc 2 days to do the work and Chris a day to tune it. Marc will start my work on Wednesday morning. Good thing ther eis no break-in period....

Bob,
I'll be stopping by on Wednesday morning with a dozen NY Bagels for Marc. So let's see.....bagels and coffee til 10:00am, sit around and shoot the breeze until about 11:00am. TIME OUT....Marc has to take a dump, another half hour. Half hour of work, and it's time for lunch. Yeah, Right.....you'll see your car by the weekend.
Hope you get it back on time........it's going to be real nice

BTW - I am also doing the tub from LPE like your car. I will be putting on 345 on the rear. Your car was the first I saw with them and thought they look great.
The car has come along way since you saw me doing 13.0 1/4 miles at Atco...

Then after that I have to walk the dog, then I forgot what else I had to do.

Marc I have seen you type. Your sentence cost at least a full cam job and probably most of the head work. Longer if one of the owners gave you a hand or finger....
I can feel all this love in the air even after I posted there is a reward for getting it done early....
Oh wait I need to be nice to Marc. So Marc how do you like your tea? and next time only plain pizzas....
