Not Ranked
The build is going well. I put the steering column & the front sway bar in yesterday. It's exciting to actually be able to sit down "behind the wheel". 
As far as part selection goes I'm really kind of going for a nostalgic sounding racing exhaust with a better than stock performance. I agree that the cam specs seem a little light compared to what is out there these days & that the GT40P is not ideal in a top performance head. The reason I'm looking at the GT40P is that it is offered in a cost effective cast iron option. Again my goal is to have a "cobra sounding" car that has decent perfomance. I obviously don't want to be dissapointed by the performance of the powerplant but being that this will strictly be a street car at this point I don't feel I have to compete with any bigblock cars
