My new engine
 
I finally got my motor all finished, built this run stand to put the motor thru its brake in period and run it for a few weeks on a stand to work out any bugs or check for leaks.
I'm pretty happy with it...
I also just had a 700r4 out of a 1990 corvette (L98) completely rebuilt to add to this motor. It should be going in soon..........I hope :metal:

That sounds very nice......I like that nice lopey idle. It reminds me of a 327 I had in a '65 Impala years ago. That'll make a nice truck. I assume you're going with say a 2000-2200 stall converter?

Beautiful engine! Never seen a dual quad setup on a 327 before, what kind of heads are you running?
