The paint job on it is as good as you'll see from a shop. Possibly better, not a lot of orange peel in the paint.
PJ you wanna rent you and that gadget out..[:x)]

mines 2pack, done by a shop. Not a bad job, flat on top and tiny bit grainy on the sides but aren't they all? Its actually a good job and I'm pretty happy with it.

Hi Cam
It runs well 11psi on premium unleaded and 17psi on 85E
this motor has a nice small cam in it so it comes on full boost
at 1650rpm and runs all the way to 7100rpm
It give a lot of people a shock as it is only a 1600

Good stuff, very cool setup you have there. What sort of power are you making out of this thing ?
Have you considered running an intercooler ? A cooler intake charge could only help your cause.
Cheers.

Normally the tops come upwards, not downwards on pushrods. You find the little bit in the sump? Nice motor BTW, shame about the body wrapped around it....[}:)] [xx(] I got some ARP bolts should you need them.
