Sounds great..Interested to see how it runs at the track. Assume you have the same issues others have had with the block. Be interested to hear any issues you had.

Hahaha, thanks guys. I do enjoy listening to it myself!!
Maybe strokeraspen will chime in and detail some of the issues we had. It would be an injustice for me to try explain and answer questions on it.
What I can say is, with most of the issues we encountered, had we known about them before the build they would have been much less of an issue.
For those that are curious, the basic combo is;
-Ritter aluminum block
-Bloomers crank
-GRP aluminum rods
-Ross Pistons 12.54-1
-bullet solid roller
-Indy 360-1 245 cnc
-Indy intake
-1050 dominator
-1 7/8 TTI headers
-727
-Lenny's 8" convertor
-8 3/4 with 3:91.....gonna swap in my Dana soon

Car is 3050 lbs with me in it.

Brian, I do not have the pictures yet. My builder is a bit old school, not quite up on the digital stuff.
I will give them a shout tomorrow and see what I can get. I should have them in my file anyway.

Thanks! I think I am going to put cut outs on it. Be nice to be able to uncork at will.
