Short of the black hood stripe that hides the awesome hood scoop I'd say that looks like a way fun car. Congrats.

Jason: Very nice indeed! Be sure to purchase stock in Firestone, Goodyear, Pirelli, et al. , since you will be burning up tires regularly with this monster!
Have fun and be sure to post some pics of your NOS additions.

not original block but I am sure at some point I will find a date correct block. I have a CJ block but mine was made 4 months before the build date of this car so it is too far away from the build date. 1-2 months is the correct range for blocks to be correct.

Who can you trust if it's not your mechanic? Way cool Jason, I'll have to make a trip out and see it when you get it.
Of course I might want a ride. You know just to make me envious.
