Looks great, to me as well. Sorry to say I was at Jeff Lutz's place yesterday. They are really gearing up for drag week. Hopefully he can catch Larson and run w/him for the week. Lots of dyno time going on at Lutz Race Cars indeed. Take care and the very best of luck!!! See ya, Ken Michalik
Thanks man, just trying to make the show... Don't have a shop with all the goodies to test with but I'll manage...

DJ, We are trying to get 4 terribly slow mopars ready to go..all are closer than yours, but I'm thinking we'll be lucky to make it with 2. This heat wave in OK is killing my brothers' desire to work on them!! Good luck, hope to see you there.

Thanks,
Hope you get all your Mopars out there too. Keep your brother motivated because in the end it will be worth it seeing all them Mopars rolling from track to track...

Good luck with the dyno/engine testing Fingers crossed you get the numbers you are after. I am looking to go mech fuel pump, also have Jesel with belt drive dizzy Can I ask where you obtained the mechanical fuel pump mounting kit ? Is the pump a hex drive & did it come with left bolt with hex drive as well ? Thanks

You will have to get with Steve Morris about that man. Due to my setup he has made changes to pretty much everything because nothing wanted to fit or line up right. I do know this, this is a cam drive fuel pump and he had to custom fit everything to make it work.

Awesome powerplant, the only thing that looks a little different is that it appears that the intake is painted with what looks to be chrome paint. Any performance reason for that or is it just personal preference?
It has been powder coated like that for years. That B1 set up was my dad's and was intended for a fast bracket motor. I took them from him, with his permission of course, and made some modification to them. I just didn't have a chance to change it. I'll pretty up the motor later. Main concern right now is getting her to run and making plenty of power...
