Well after 2 years and about 6000grand later engine work has finally begun on my 5.0HO converted TC.
Just got everything apart(again,after talking the car apart several times for various reasons,swap etc)heads,intakes,headers etc.
Got the new heads,headers and rockers on so far,tommorow or at the latest wednesday,it should be a running car again.
In case any off ya'll don't know what i'm doing with me yapping about it here and there for the last 2 years and my pics in the readers ride section, i'll give ya a quick refresher.
