Been making a little progress in the cammer. I have the new engine mounts drawn up and going to hopefully get the engine final mounted this week. Engine will have solid mounts and mid plate, so it's not going anywhere. I am trying to keep everything so I can swap between the 6er and the v8 easily without to much work. Ordered all the hot side tubing so I will hopefully get the hot side going this week. I can use one of my old down pipes and half my exhaust system so that parts done. I ordered a fuel rail so when that comes in I am going to get it machined for injectors and mock that up to figure out injector placement and angle to clear the thermostat housing. Then I can finish up the intake
I am getting excited for this wierd little project. Plan is to have it going and tested by June. I am signed up for the summit midwest drags which is like a 3 day mini drag week. I hope to have this done and going fast enough not to look like a fool in a car that will cert 8.50 ha. If I can't get it done in time or i hurt it trying to run the numbers I am happy with my backup is my turbo 70 lemans wagon so that's not to bad either!
