Damn that looks like a sweet motor man...Nice work. Did you build it yourself ? Is it dry sumped ? Must sound amazing at 7 grand. If you don't mind me asking; approx. how much did it cost to build the motor and what are the spec ?

Where did you get the heat shields for the plug wires ?? Did you fab them yourself ? Take care, and congrats on a very nice build. That thing oughta be a monster on the track...
argo,

Keith Craft Racing in Arkansas built the motor and is not dry sump yet. I have somewhere btwn 15 to 18k in the complete motor. I don't keep track of costs, it's too painful. I am in denial. Moroso sells the plug wire shield in a roll. I tailored the wire set.
The basic engine:

Blue printed 302 R-block
Bronze lifter bores
Zero balanced forged rotating assembly
Crank scraper & windage tray
10.5 compression
solid roller cam
Yates heads, titainium valves, T&D rockers & spray bars
Roush C302 intake, 750 Holley
7.25" triple disk Tilton clutch
bla, bla, bla

Thanks, John
