Building a 383 for neighbors truck
Got a new project started. Actually started a couple weeks ago. Pulled a TBI 350 from neighbors truck to build a 383. Engine is out, cleaned, painted. Didn't need to bore the block as a surprise, it was already bored 30 over and still had the hash marks from last rebuild. Once all the new parts are ...

88 Camaro Build #2
Finally getting around to the Camaro. Mostly a plan in the making. So far took a 454 block I had and building a 496. Most of the big parts are here and together. Lots of making it all fit and function to go. I'll add some pictures to get this post up to speed and then I'll keep it updated. Got the c...

Re: Icky Minnow Engine Swap
Finally have the car running and driving. Made a first drive video. We'll make some more videos as we go. Turned out pretty good for the first time I have edited a video. Got a cheap go-pro type camera we can mount to the car, so planning on having some fun with that. Still got plenty more to add he...

Re: Engine from IROC
Haven't work on this one in a while. Figured it was time to get it finished up since the run stand is back up here in the garage. Got the heads back on it and working at getting the rest of it together. This is still going to be sold when done. Here's where it's at today. There will be more on this ...

Re: Icky Minnow Engine Swap
Got the transmission all back together. It's now a full manual TH350. Used an old school B & M Manualpack IMG_20190823_120926.jpg IMG_20190823_132155.jpg IMG_20190823_141219.jpg IMG_20190825_181144.jpg Ready to mate this back up to the engine with stall converter and get it back in the Icky.

Re: Icky Minnow Engine Swap
Engine together and running on the engine run stand. This was right after setting the timing and carb adjustment so it would idle. Will find it up this weekend.

Re: Icky Minnow Engine Swap
Decided to pull the heads since this thing has a fairly large cam in it and install some screw in rocker studs. With press in studs and over .500" lift it didn't sound like a good idea. Flat tops, 882 heads with steel shim head gaskets to help bump the compression up a little. Still waiting on some ...
