Here is the Dyno sheet I promised.  Ken, it looks like the centerline is 105.5.

Hey Ken,
I have not had the pleasure of hearing it run yet, they were supposed to call me when they were ready to dyno it but I guess they forgot!  I am anxious to hear it run, they said it sounded real nasty.  Probably be another couple of weeks before I can have it put in place and fired up.

It does have a fairly tight center line.......... i bet it sounds more than nasty, as if it is about to attack you just idling away Ruff

One step closer, received the new aluminum 26" radiator from Fred.  Should keep cool with no problems!

Here is some pictures of the beast being dropped in.  Still have a ways to go but I have it in and bolted up, headers installed, 4-speed hooked up, shifter linkage in, pistol grip in etc.  Spark plugs were a B****H to get tightend up!   :stomp:

Thanks again guys!  Yes I am getting anxious to crank her up and hear that Mopar muscle come to life!  Got the clutch hooked up tonight.  Will try to get closer to firing her this weekend.
