got the 440 upper end freshend up the last 2 weekends.

swapped on a set of rebuilt 452 heads with the Hughes springs,hedman hedders, 3" pipes/3" muffs.

test drove and runs great no issues. boogie

this weekend I swapped in the hughes whiplash cam, lifters, t-chain,t-cover, M/T valave covers, cleaned up the wire harness down the VC area.

fired it up first spin, run for 30 mins to break cam in,shut down to cool down some, drove 10 miles with no issues.

let it cool down and changed oil out for the Amsoil high zinc 100% full synthetic 10w40 oil with amsoil large filter.

drove 35 miles at different speeds none over 65 mph. shut down over night, fired right up this morning for a 40 mile ride to work no issues.

the q-jet is gong to the shelf and the holley 650 dbl pumper is going on for fine tunning after work today.

man I am stoked..it is a nasty sounding beast now but drives rather tame on the street like advertised.
