[Greg Rust]

I swear they must not have put the yellow tinter in, it is waaaay fucking white

Kelvinator white?

Surely the rust will turn it slightly yellow over time

Not going to happen, Carolyn and Paul had an intervention with me tonight in the shed, there is just no way known that we can get the amount of work required done in the time. Here is what is still on the list.

- correct some of the engine bay
- build engine
- have everything coated
- rewire nearly everything
- build the diff (shortened diff that needs all the mounts moved)
- paint everything
- get the msd sorted
- get the data logging sorted
- sort the tune
- modify the rocker covers
- finish the fuel system
- etc etc

mix this with the 60+ hour weeks at work, it just isn't going to happen. Shattered.

(p.s. I blame paul :p)

This is sad news, i was hoping to line you up on the main straight, maybe the next powerplay then. Im doing my best to get mine ready for this powercruise, see what happens, will be there if nothing goes wrong.

[Dave]

Yeah I really wish I had made it, but it was going to be a total half arse job to get it there, I was making everyones life hell trying to get it done.

Got a choice to make, I bought TK's 330 setup, which has chev 5.7 rods and TRW pistons but I just picked up a eagle 355 crank, and I have a set of eagle 6" h-beams, which could quite easily get a set of SRP / Probe pistons. My thoughts are at the moment that I will build the 330 and keep the 355 for the eventual breakage when I try to put 25 psi through the 330 and send it to hell.

decisions???

[Greg Rust]

330 cuber in the front and 355 in the rear?

[Dave]

vk aint no bloback

[crack]

decisions???

330 cuber in the front and 3.55" in the rear?

[TK]

I's stick with the 330 for now - prepping a 355 for boost is a $$ job.

Keep the 355 for a later date.
