He was young and doing a good job. I have had a hard time finding someone up to our standards. Saturday I was going to meet with my engine builder and I had to cancel because I have a bad case of the flu. I did get the rear end out to narrow and found out the axle tubes are the same length so I'm not sure if we will modify this one or start with a new housing. Sorry for all the bad news now for some good Steve Baur the editor of Fastest Street Car Magazine is going to feature the engine build in his magazine. We will be building a stroker FE using one of my 428 blocks for the build.
