Stay tuned, I'll post some more pics on our WCCC site a little later and will notify you by e-mail. Our first stop after the S&E was a shop "to die for!" (I was going to say, 'I'd give my left nut for'  , but that would not be appropriate language.  ) Hope there'll be another outing to this place that you'll have to make.
The other stop, which was only attended by Sid, Jeff and me, was nearby, at Mike's house. It was most impressive to see the excellent workmanship of this 20 year old "kid" and what he has accomplished on his FFR build in a few months. This is also a "must see again" stop to get the rest of you impressed!
Unfortunately my camera's batteries gave out after the first picture at this stop.

B.S. Nobody gets to waive the "beer requirement" Sid, What are you thinking...
I vote that Sid should bring the beer since he is of age! What do you think Mike?
One vote for Sid to bring it

Chris that was a test. You passed. BTW Chris, Mike is a novice poker player. But he was trash talkin about how he can take you on. Should we help make his Cobra fund a little smaller???

No trash talking from me.......yet. I don't know when I'll be ordering my new shortblock yet. Hopefully my house sells soon, that would help. I'm leaning towards either a 427, 434, 454, 460 small block with an aftermarket block. That way I can reuse many of the parts I already have. I need (not want) at least 600hp and 10 second time slips. Anybody have any suggestions (on a very tight budget).

Chris, what kind of parts do you have left that resemble anything that would be on a 600+ horsepower engine?
