Well, theres some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that they ran the engine on the Dyno today for about 10 minutes and discovered an oil leak. They are sealing it and letting it set over night then they will finish the run tomorrow. Engine Builder will fix when he gets it back. The GOOD news is not only did it start, the guy running the Dyno told me "she sounds pretty $*%KING healthy." LOL

Should have the numbers tomorrow.

Don't ya love that kind of response?!?! I'd say it's a good thing they found the leak now instead of after it was sitting back between the fenders!

Hopefully I'll have the numbers today. Eddy RPM heads, hand ported (picked up quite a bit of flow), .030 over bore, 750 Holley Double-Pumper, Eddy RPM manifold, Comp Cams 275 with 1.6 ratio rockers, 9.8:1 CR flat head pistons (I was hoping for 10:1, but told he only got 9.8), fully balanced assembly, and polished TTI headers. I'm hoping for some nice numbers. I'll keep you all posted.
