looks sweet !!
Yell us more !!
Specs and what is it going in ?
 
Looks awesome. And I thought was doing good with my 408 6 Pack build. You definitely got me beat.
 
sorry. not familiar with your build. what is it going in? why the elephant ears? how difficult is it to find r3 blocks? how expensive are they? what kind of rocker gear?
 
Digging it! Was building something similar 7-8 years ago but decided I wasn't going to be running the car at the track as in the past. Sold my raised port W9s to Brian @ IMM and traded my 48 degree R3 for a 59 degree block and built a "slightly" tamer street/strip motor. Btw: What are the plans for this one? Post some video of the fire up if you can.

The R 3 short deck has no motor mounts that's why the motor plate jesel rocker arms bullet 50mm roller cam Ryan at shady dell did all the block work and finished the clyinder heads

Well I got the motor set in place today now comes the fun part building a set of headers I’ve got a set of old nascar truck headers that I think I can make work
 
Looks like a pooch. Think it will break into the 12's???

Just kiddin( this guy is one of my best buddies and lives by me) we think it will get in the 8's NA, 840ish ponies.
 
Will send a video when I get it up and running should be a fun car to drive
