Engine builder

[rrTor-Red]

I pulled the trigger and gave a builder the green light to build my dream. After some opinions and advice from you guys here on the forum, thats what I did. I had a couple of lengthy calls talking and finally did it. I have a vision in my head and the builders job is to put it on canvase. kinda like an artist. BUILD it Mike. I feel like an expecting father, can't wait for it . Thanks Mike!

Sound good, get ready to buy some cigars.

Thanks guys for the advice and recommendations. I felt comortable talking with him that he is the one to build her. I'll give out a cigar to everyone and even buy a beer or all. Mike is building her from carb to pan. Least I'll know that there's just on person building the complete engine instead of several diferent ones adding this and that part. I told him to take pictures of the build and a video of the dyno. Posted soon.

Nice, Mike is the man.

I just had a lengthy phone conversation with him myself. It's a nice feeling knowing with Mike, carb to pan and his shop dyno your getting one of the best Mopar builds available in the USA.

Ya... not only that... Hell ya brother! Awesome.

In for some pics of this build.

I told him I would like pictures of the build and video of the dyno. He told me his friend does the dynos and sometimes there isn't a scheduled time to do it. Sometimes the guy will call him on the spur of the moment to tell him that he has time for a dyno run. Otherwise, I would like to be there when it is on the dyno. But Mike said he would take pix of the parts, build, and video of the dyno and give them to me. I'll post them when I get them. On a side note-I didn't know a starter from a Dodge truck would be the starter to put on because of the high torque, go figure.

I'll also post some of the specifics and a copy of the dyno run for anyone interested
