Been awhile, some good to report, some bad.

Shortly after last update I had a valvetrain failure that exploded the motor. Tune looked perfect, all other parts in the motor looked perfect, just a straight up part failure caused the issue. This ended the season for me as I couldn’t get a new motor in time to save the season, so I side casted the whole mess while deciding what to do. After talking with several motor builders around the country I settled on Shafiroff Racing out of NY to build a 588” that was setup for boost and big HP. Even setup at a lazy 8.5:1 the motor still made north of 800hp! I am happy, and mildly excited to report that the new motor is on a truck and headed to Oregon so that this thing can get resurrected and back on the water sooner than later!
Friend of mine has one of his motors in a 69 Camaro going on 7 years. 👍 👍
