Gettin' closer by the minute! hehe... I would like to see the '64 GTO... heck, I'd like to have a '64! :)

Re: Update E-F/SA Bird Build...
 

I think he is about ready to sell the GTO...too many irons in the fire and too many other projects. ;)

Re: Update E-F/SA Bird Build...
 

I hear you... I have 3 cars to tinker with..but , the Bird is gettin all my attention this year...the other 2 run just fine, and are there whenever i wanna blow the cobwebs out of them....
Got my pushrods today and ATi is done with my converter..should have it in the next couple days! Still doubt that i will make INdy in APril, but shootin for Joliet in late June...

Aw,,, c'mon, Brent,,,,,you can still make it to Columbus in May. Its only 2 months out. I'm hoping to fly out and see your Firebird. Keep plugging away.

Its not a matter of me gettin car finished, as much as it is $... Im gonna try...but i have taxes coming up, and this weather needs to straighten up, because its hard to get motivated when its 5* and snow all over the place...hehe We are supposed to get large amounts of snow and ice from Saturday to Monday...

Re: Update E-F/SA Bird Build...
 

Well, i finally got the engine buttoned up. Set valves, put intake and valley pan on... Primed oil system...65psi, all 16 rockers oiling. All is well with the world...hehe. Got my converter back from ATi, on Friday...So basically, other than seals and checking pan on the 2.75 low gear 400turbo, its all ready to set in the car. I think im gonna wait and run it once more, the way it sits, since i hooked up MSD over the Winter. I would like to verify that its all workin good, before i put new engine in it... INDY in APril is not a possiblity, at this time... i need a few things, like helmet and fuel pump, and taxes are approaching. Im gonna set my sights on Joliet , in Late June. That will give me time to sort car out a bit, before i hand over 185.00 for entry..hehe

Check out the nice wheelstand photo of Bryan Phillips E/SA Firebird on Drag Race Central in the photos section. Sorry I don't know how to make a link.
