Well havent posted any updates on the car in years. So since the last update alot changed with the car. Swapped the 8.25 out for a 8.75 filled with a 4.10 spool. Built a 408 stroker that didnt last a season due to me cheaping out and using hyper pistons instead of forged.

After that i got and currently have a 1999 5.9 magnum and threw a 4 inch stroke in it. Got edelbrock heads for it and started out with comp cams full roller rockers. Didnt like them as they seemed to have to much play so i got a set of harland sharps.

After i got the rockers swapped out, i didnt have a issue until late fall when i found out that the guide plates were adjusted wrong and wore into the pushrods.
