Nice clean engine David!
Its been a while since I added any pics of mine as well so I'll jump in on the fun. I decided not to bring my engine to get dyno'd because I just wanted to get it in the car already. Also getting the EFI all setup to work at the dyno was my main discouragement. Here is a pic of dropping it in and a shot of it setting down with headers attached. Its been a while since I touched it now though since the cold hit however. I may bundle up and do a few things to it tomorrow.

Well it could be as soon as I want it to be really, however being that its like 10 degrees outside and my garage isn't heated there really isn't any motivation. My plan is to AT LEAST bring in the 8.5 rear I have and have the gears set up, remove the old rear end and install the 8.5 and then get a new driveshaft made before spring. Anything else I get done would be icing.

Then when it gets warm enough to motivate me I will finish it up and fire it in early spring.

And that's a nice looking sprint motor Jeff

Don't see those Sprint motors everyday that's for sure. Nice.
This was the last version of my motor. Getting to the point where you can't hardly see it under all that crap anymore. Of course now it's hanging on the stand right now awaiting it's newest incarnation for next year.

Here are a few pics of my 94 bird with a CV-1 headed 505. I should add a few people have asked if it was a RAV.
