man is it nice out...

I thought you bought parts to put together a stroker a while ago, what's going on with that?


its still sitting in the box in the corner of my bedroom under my ez efi box... think the old lady is used to seeing it there and assumes it will never leave...lmao..

here is what happened.. after i hurt the eddy headed 360 i pulled the motor and ordered the 408 kit. it sat a few months and the more i thought about it i wanted to do the 408 right the first time and gas went through the roof which meant more money. as time went on and knowing how i am ( i would get board of the car not being able to drive it) i decided to put a 60,000 mile stock 74 360 i had laying around in the car. it was like 3 weeks before carlisle a couple years ago. that damn motor runs so nice that i really don't want to touch it now..lol. i put 2.94 gears in the car at the time too and i am having more fun driving the car now with a stock motor then i have had in tears with it. i have actually been thinking about the 408 again recently. i really want to send the heads out to get done. then i can do the short block. its a ***** because the car runs so well, gets about 17 mpg and has been stone reliable that i keep buying other stuff to improve other areas of the car and ignoring the 408..lol. las year i rewired it, i just picked up a ez efi kit for it a few months ago (still need to save for the tank/pump combo) and the fuel system. it just never ends. one of these days i'll get to the 408 i guess. i have most of the parts which is the good thing. just really need the money for the machine work is it. i figure i will fo the injection first, then heat/ air then the motor.
