I haven't seen it in a while, either.

2023 was not a good year. Luckily, things have settled down and I'm finding time to do my stuff again.

I recently machined the new intake so it will be compatible with the new valley pan. The old pan was partially blocking the enlarged intake ports.
Now, I need to make sure the intake sits flat. After that, I'll flip the motor to address a minor drip from the external oil feed. Then, it will be resealing the timing cover and making adjustments to the EFI system for the new setup.

I'd like to get it back to the dyno this Spring if he'll have me. The change back to a conventional 4 bbl throttle body might ease his mind.


We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind.
