New project ( stock suspension 275 drag radial 72 duster)
OK guys, it doesnt seem like I have made much progress lately, but I have collected some new pieces. First off, I decided to keep the chin spoiler and made a structural support out of aluminum for it and had it and the aluminum bumper brackets powder coated and got them installed. I also purchased a former Craftsman truck series 358" R3W8 engine. It is a low deck R3 block that has been converted to a wet sump, Windberg billet crank, cnc'd W8 heads and 598 intake, solid roller with new Jesel lifters, Jesel titanium valve train, and will be the foundation for my turbo motor. I plan on using the complete engine for mock up fabrication purposes and after everything is fabbed then take the engine apart for new rods and turbo pistons, a turbo grind camshaft, and some inconel exhaust valves.
