This motor turned out to put out some hp and torque. Wasn't expecting so much. The car was going to be a daily driver/school bus so the rods and crank were not an issue. After seening the hp #'s I regreted not going forged. Oh well. I'll be ugarding this department along with a new r302 or boss 302 block. Not sure which one yet.

Ohhhhhhhh, the wannabe "Fast and the Furious" crowd.
Some cars are cool and fast like the Toyota Supras, Nissan Skyline and a few others. But I'm talking about the four cylinder cars that are dropped, 50 lbs. of ground effects, a huge wing on the trunk and you can hear coming a mile away.
