OK,
Chip is correct, Bill Plage did a hell of a job with the motor.
Jim sold the Corvette with the motor & spare parts .
The truck idea came from Jim I think, I'm not sure but I know we talked about it over 6 months ago.
Bill spent the better part of two months building the 350 !
I'll put a $1000.00 up that it will pass tear down, Bill is a good friend and I know He checked and doubled checked everything on that motor...Because He knew it would go to tear down,,,,,,
Those that don't know Bill should know that He's raced for 40 plus years and has always built his own stuff.
He moved to North Carolina 20 years ago and for a time worked for Hedrick Racing and Bill Davis Racing in the engine shop,, Enough said,,,,,
Is it a soft combo ? yeah, but no more than the new stuff out there...
Can it run faster ? You'll need to ask Paul or Jim.. lol
Congrat's to Bill , Jimmy, Paul and Guy's !!!
You earned that one !!!!
