OOOOH YEEEEEEEAAAAA, BABY!!!!

Hi guys!

Jerry - Great work with the photo editing! I love it.

chill - Your first photo looks more like the engine I used to have in my Galaxy 500 back when I was a younger man.

Dave - Thanks for the phone call! I called Susan and heard the engine. Man, that thing sounds good!

For those who don't already know, the engine is a 427 side-oiler block with an offset-ground 427 crank. This strokes it to 462 cubes. Bill used Eagle H-beam rods, Wiesco (sp?) pistons, Edelbrock aluminum heads and water pump, Dove roller rockers, and of course dual 600-CFM Holleys. The block was already drilled for hydraulic lifters and I elected to go this route since it will only see street use for the most part.

We're gonna pick up the car from Unique this coming weekend! Man, I can't wait.

Keith

P.S. - Wilf - I guess the Lakewood will match the car.
