engine is in.....woooooot

7-up man · September 16th, 2007, 07:13 PM

well, after waiting 8 weeks for my 347 to be built, its finally in. Engine, transmission, clutch are all in. Now all I have left to do is go through the rear end.

the guy that sold me the car "claimed" it had 31 spline axles, but after seeing much of the half assed stuff he did, I was hessitant and decided to check for myself. sure enough, only 28 splines.

I figure it will cost me around another 1,500 to get the parts I need for that, and I will be on the road.

the only problem is, after dropping 9,500.00 for a motor, and clutch....and another 1,500.00 for headers and exhaust.....im broke as hell....LOL.

well, I guess I better sweet talk the wife some more.

this thing should be a beast when I am done. 347 stroker with a D1 and 16 lbs of boost.

the local track closes in November.....I dont know if I will have it done by then or not.

7-up man · September 22nd, 2007, 06:46 PM

so, do you guys think with that set up 600rwhp is atainable?

also, im not a huge fan of 18s on a fox so those wheels and tires may be up for sale soon if anyone is interested.

Its been in the car since last weekend. the engine hasnt even been fired yet.

I will be able to give you a good review in a couple of weeks I suppose. As soon as the car is dynoed I plan on taking it to the track once or twice before it closes this year.

Drick · September 22nd, 2007, 07:06 PM

Cool i want to hear about it because im buying that block when I get the money how long ago did you buy the block

7-up man · September 22nd, 2007, 07:08 PM

The engine shop had the block about 6 weeks ago. they ordered mine along with a couple of others for projects they were doing.

I saw the block before assembly began and its a very beefy block. Should hold up to anything I want to throw at it.
