Some pics from yesterday - the engine is in and blocked for now. Next step is to measure and fab the engine mounts as well as order up the drive shaft.

Wow that looks great; the build is coming along quite nicely. What kind of power numbers are you expecting from that motor setup.

Thanks,

The engine initially won't make a whole lot. Estimate 250 to 280 perhaps. We have a performance CAM as well as an upgraded Holly double pump carb as the only modifications at the moment.

Torque is really what we're going for. The car is exceptionally light as well.

The 302 has parts available pretty much anywhere - so power-adders are totally a possibility once our driving skills warrant them. (that could be never) :-)

NOW - if/when that engine goes boom/sputter - we will probably be looking at a small block crate to replace it.

The engine pictures are nice. Looks like you are on your way to having a great car.
