Are you going to be running stock injectors? It looks like it in that pic.

I've been lurking on your build both here and syty.net since I find it interesting to see how fast you'll go. I find it interesting, because you're not doing the norm, like just going straight to vortecs/bowties, aftermarket hot parts, an 80E, or just a V8 swap. It seems like a nice budget build with parts that'll work well together.

Do you have any pics of the heads, and what port work was done to them?

came extremely close to it running tonight.

had a bad ground wire, and the battery was grounding through the O2 sensors, and thin ground straps.

so i need to ground the engine a little better. it cranked fine, had no leaks, good fuel pressure, just a matter of better grounds.

Looks like it's coming along nicely. Those damn grounds will get you everytime. People tell me that I over ground....I tell them not possible..lol. You're almost there.

Badass build. It sounds mean.
