The forum finally seems to be stabilizing and not dropping replies.

First, Craig If you like LA/Oliver you should see the Jesel Rocker Arms. I wish they made clear valve covers. They are like little works of art. I really lucked out with this motor. I picked it up with very little time on it for 3500.00. I went through it and replaced the bronze lifter bushings with steel, rebuilt the Isky lifters, sent the Weaver pump to Weaver to make it from a 4 stage to a 3 stage and that was pretty much it. Oh had the rods magnufluxed.

Dyno time cost some bucks but thought it was better to break it in on the Dyno. Its got NO NITROUS on it. The bottle Rick is talking about is going on Rob JR's 66 427 Corvette. When he lost "big time" to my Grand National Buick he had to do "something"

Trans is a Tremec, tires Mickey Thompson ET STREETS 26/8. Going to go to 28/10's though. Street tires are BFG KD's 17".

Rick I've never heard of running a power steering pump off the dry sump pump but It sounds like a good idea. Are the Nascar guys doing that? Also Craig, tell us about your "mild" 398 blown/Intercooled toy. Mine is VERY mild compared to that. You too Rick a blown big block...What other tricks do you have up your sleeve(s). I think the 3 of us would enjoy getting together and trying to think up more crazy stuff. I may have to go to a blower just to keep up though...Also how about uploading some pictures so I can see what you two are up to.

Regards to you both,
