We're going to end up taking the engine out for the cam and intake, so we're gonna throw in a TCI Breakaway converter while it's apart.

Well, big update...And not exactly an awesome one.

Let's just say I'm really glad my intake and carb will work for a 360. Especially glad I decided to go a little big with a 600cfm carb. The Javelin was cracked open and the new Lunati was going to be installed when it was discovered the cam bearings were bad. 

Made an executive decision to ditch the 304 idea and go for a 360. Already located a great engine that's just been rebuilt and never fired. Yay horsepower!

Haven’t updated my thread in quite a while...

Out:

304
Open differential

In:

360 with Performer Intake, headers, Comp Cams Thumpr
Powertrax Locker
B&M Street/Strip shift kit
Hughes 2500 RPM stall converter

Been having trouble getting the engine to idle in park due to the cam, but I’m finally getting close!

Got my 15" Center Line wheels on the back of the car with Nitto 275/50R15 555Rs. Smile

I'm gonna Plasti Dip all the wheels a glossy black to make them match better. New shocks are getting installed this weekend--AND the idle issue has FINALLY been resolved. Bought a new Edelbrock Thunder AVS 650 and it works great!
