Thanks a bunch guys. I really appreciate your comments. It was a lot of work and a many a night wrenching and fabricating, but it was all worth it in the end.

I may have to get back with you guys with your questions about the engine and driveability, as I have only driven it a little around the neighborhood so far, so I could make any necessary adjustments to anything needed. I can say that I am very impressed with the engine so far. I had witnessed the dyno on the engine a couple of months ago when I picked it up from KC and I was very impressed with the outcome of the dyno, as you can see from the numbers it produced. The engine sounds incredible through the stainless sidepipes and I can definitely feel the power this engine wants to produce. Probably too much power, but I hope the driveability is there as well. KC and the guys definitely know their business when it comes to the FE's.

Terrys SPF, I did end up going with the iron Genesis block. After dealing with a couple of ragged out originals, it seemed like the only option for me. I think that I made a good choice.

Thanks again guys,

Allen Findley
