Too bad someone had to ruin this for all. Anyone know the outcome of the build?

Can we step away from the negative, yes it sucks. But look at the good coming out of this.

Confusedcuda, I hear you on reliability over power. A little more than stock is good enough for the A body. I'm 63, so I can relate to driving versus working on something all the time. Can't wait to hear and see it run in your Cuda.

DROOLLLL:p Nice work, sounds awesome, nice idle. Bet the owner is excited. Hope when he gets it in his car and running he'll post up a video here. So you've been building engines for a while, what's your guess the numbers could be? Not that it really matters, it's a rockin' engine, just...

Yep they open the valves for sure, then (in more instances than we'd like to see) as time passes they wear the cam lobes, valves don't open as much, fine metal particles circulate "everywhere" and all sorts of fun begins.

You guys have way more knowledge than I as to cam grinds and what to get for specific applications, impressed. That said, the 360, for the Duster in signature (many years out before it'll be anywhere near running) that I had sold to a Navy buddy back in 86 (entire well running car) and...

Cool thread. Subscribed. My condolences on the loss of your brother. My thoughts on the engine, as a tribute to your brother, keep it exactly as it is/was put it in a body what you & he were thinking and go race it. Just my thoughts.
