God, looking back it looks so clean! Amazing how a couple racing seasons can make it look all dingy.

Thanks, it's basically a Nascar Nextel cup engine and transmission with a few changes;
Lowered the compression ratio from 12to1 to 10.5to1
Increased the displacement from 356c.i. to 392c.i.
Opted for wet sump instead of dry
Roller cam opposed to a flat tappet
A couple of other little things

It should make 800hp at the flywheel, I hope to have the rest of the car ready to take the power this spring
