After 2-1/2 years of work, we're cranking the motor on my 73 vette. My dad has driven 9 hours to see the car we started together 20 years ago finally come to life with a fresh new 435 hp 383. Wish us luck!

CONGRATS!!! :thumb


What a neat story!
 
Good Luck ,Have Fun!!!!
 
Update: worked out all the leaks and got the motor timed and running well at idle. Still have some bugs to work out, like shielding the starter wires from the headers, and fine tuning the electric fan setup. Motor sound wicked!
