Good for you. You will enjoy it a lot knowing you put all that work into it.

Goza Machine Shop in Acworth GA is taking care of the .40 over, balance, align hone, squared the deck, rebuild the crankshaft 10 - 10 under before balance it with the billet flywheel, fluid damper harmonic balancer, Spec pressure plate, and installing the cam bearings on the block, Mr Tommy Goza is the best cant wait to get it back to start the engine assembly and blue print!

I did took apart the 833 trany with my 6 year old daughter and we just finish yesterday rebuilding it with new bearings, tail housing synchronizers and gaskets set, trust me without my daughter i couldn't do it, she got a photographic memory AWESOME!

Very nice. What kind of horsepower are you looking to get out of it? Keep up the progress.

Thanks, i hope for 500 even, but if not reached i will change the cam and Boost the MOFO out and i am sure 700 will be within easy reach at less than 15 PSI of boost!

I start with the engine assembly today and already made a mistake by ordering the wrong piston rings, my probe pistons take the 1/16 first and second rings and i order the 5/64 by mistake, my fault for not checking before ordering, thanks to the good people of Mancini Racing, and i return the wrong rings and the right ones are already on their way here, super customer service.

So i just get the crank and girdle installed and torqued down to 110 Ft. Lbs. and sealant plus the rear main seal also installed and sealed, hope no leaks cuz it will be a pain in the ass to do it in the car.

here couple of pictures of it on its way to be an engine again since the late 70's!

Well i did a little more today on the engine, file fit rings to abuse type specs, and then got to stop cuz my only facking T45 torx bit is the broken one and can't torque down the timing chain sprocket, so bag it and till next time i got a chance.

I hate these torx screws. I was putting together my wilwood front brakes and the hub to rotor plate adapter uses the 3/8x16x1 Torx screws and need to be torqued to 55lb/ft and my 40 snapped. I go to my neibour who's a mechanic to borrow one and he proceeds to give me sht for buying a cheap tool. I get a good one from him go back in my shop and go to torque the screw and bang.......the damn thing breaks.

I changed the screws and used 3/8x1x16 stainless bolts.
