So in building the boosted engine, originally had a 400 block prepped, had to wait for almost 2 years for a billet crank, Had machine work done on a rotating assembly, had it all assembled & in the car, and then found money to buy an IA2 block. That engine came back out, and swapped everything over to the IA2 block. Not going into all that happened, but that's basically a recap.

Here's a couple shots of the boosted engine together, and in the car. I had once again gone through the suspension (CAT5 leafs, GW front springs), freshened the underside some, got a TKO500, which I later swapped for a 600, new rear housing and center section, hydroboost brake setup, and Baer 14/13" brakes. Designed a custom EFI tank, many I'm sure have seen those pics before here too.
