Hey guys,
 
I jsut got to see my engine on a dyno! I got a video of it. 2 pulls. It was so powerful that it blew the baffle out of one of the mufflers it was hooked up to and the dyno stand actually moved, so the guy you see int he back is holding the stand from moving. lol. The engine's final power ont eh Dyno was 456HP and like 550 ft lbs. He said that when I get my own electic water pump on, and tweak the carb and get some good wires (my talyors) and my headman hustlers on I should be up a bit over 500HP. He siad he was gonna help me tweak it. And he said that this engien everyone of his customers inquired about purchasing it, everyone loved it. Its so hot.... anyways without any more talking here si the video:

ND looks nice?  are you INSANE?  lol.  I guess the western part of it isn't bad...the badlands and river valley...the eastern part is just flat and sucky.  summer and fall are pretty damn awesome...next week I plan on taking the vette out on the road that runs all the way up the Missouri River, and searching out some awesome pictures with the fall colors.  Winter's awful, just for the fact that it gets so damn cold.  Spring...eh.  Not much to say.
 
Feel free to take a road trip up here if you get bored.  Always some work to be done on the car ;)
