This should go without saying, but I am extremely grateful that Rick chose me to do this engine build for him. Some might see this as just another garden variety big block Chevy build, but to me, this is much, much more.
We won't be getting silly with this build in the quest for big power. This is going to be a straightforward build focusing on the basic fundamentals, good parts, quality machine work, and attention to the details. Rick has given me the green light to perform a few minor "tweaks" here & there to bump the power up a little, and we will dyno the engine when it's complete for the purpose of break-in, to ensure everything is happy, and to verify it's making the power it should make. I'll be posting pics & videos here and on my business Facebook page as we go. The short block and heads are already at the machine shop, and we're planning on getting started on the work next week. Stay tuned for the details. And again, I can't thank Rick and Ann enough for this opportunity--and the privilege to be a part of this build. |
