The door trims are a bit of an experiment And im not even 100% sold on them but ive got about 10m of the sparkly black vinyl left , so I might just revisit As the design I feel is not quite balanced and the artwork is a bit chunkey But sometimes when your freehanding things don't turn out as sharp as one would like. As for the power estimate That was before I decided to go 304 but it all revolves around the injector size only 42lb and the standard rods and pistons . I might wind it up to see what I get and if it goes pop I would have only blown about a K. It is going to be fun tho.
cheers
I have some spare standard 8.4:1 304 rotating/reciprocating internals I can freight you if you start going through them. Pistons are +0.10. They are spare to me as I've gone with a stroker bottom end. I might (dunno yet, I've just bought and about to get stuck into renovating a house) have some 60lb injectors spare as well as I'm leaning towards going Holley TB EFI. Made up an internal swirl pot and walbro in tank pump to feed it all. Hopefully it will work well enough.
