Re: My New Time Attack Car Build Thread
Once I looked at the crank I decided I needed to have it polished. At that point I went ahead and decided to get rid of the shitty heads and take the block and crank to the machine shop. The block is getting the full treatment including a diamond hone and new cam bearings. Apparently the diamond hone is good for 15hp right off the bat. Also decreases the bed in time for the rings to about 100miles. So I won't have to spend as much time on the dyno. Very very expensive tool though. The crank wasn't as bad as I thought so I should be able to use standard size bearings after it's polished. I hopefully will be getting it back tomorrow so I can assemble everything this weekend.

Yea I'm only trying to make 400 so I figured the stock hard parts would be fine. I did get arp rod bolts and I will probably get new lifters to keep them from grinding down my new cam. Other than that I'm gonna get springs, retainers, and pushrods with the cam.

Re: My New Time Attack Car Build Thread
So I'm still alive and so is this project. I'll try and update this thread more often now that I'm working on the car again. I had to take a break shortly after I started to pursue some other racing ventures but now I'm focusing on finishing this car. I have most of what I need now so the fabrication work is on the way. Here's a pic of what will make some of the music inside the car.
