Default My 496 project, the dyno results are in

Greg;

Thanks. I have almost as much time in writing that up and doing the photography as I did doing the engine build itself!

Eric

Ken;

Thanks.

The engine will be going into my `67 Chevelle SS396 project, which is currently in limbo while I try to locate a rotisserie to borrow/rent.

Dave;

Thanks.

Compared to building engines and trying to get this car restoration completed, the carb restorations are the easy part! lol!

Eric

Wow, Great stuff Eric, already sent the build story to a couple of by Bud's.
I have to go back and read in again so it all sinks in. Thanks for your efforts in posting.
