Don't know how far I will have gotten in the build but I will certainly have a new barrage of questions!

Thanks again Doug..

For the money (20K), the best kit out there! What type of engine are you planning? Mabe the 385 series? For about 10K in off the shelf parts( used engine included) you can drop a 460 cid in your MKIV pushing 700+ HP & 700+ TQ Of course you will have to beef up your other running gear just a wee bit! But @ 2,300lbs or less; what a MONSTER! you would have!! But if you are concerned about you & your guest keeping dry pants! Just drop a sbf in, you'll still have a blast! If you are interested in 385 series build spec's, let me know I'll drop you a list of parts to review. Just for fun !!

I too recently ordered a MKIV. I have a line on a DOVE-A block and a set of SCJ iron heads. I like the stroker options out there, and am a bit overwhelmed by all the cam/piston/crank/intake/carb/injection choices out there. Like 500+ HP and TQ #s on pump gas, single carb, and maybe a hyd roller setup. I'd love to have suggestions as to a good combo to get where I'd like to be. Thanks!
