I'm flattered.

Hopefully, this summer, if money allows, I'll be pushing quite a bit more horsepower...as it is, I've got "just" 230 to the wheels, tops. At the least, I want to put in a bigger cam (I have a 260H, want to go to an XE262H) and a set of headers along with a new exhaust all the way back, and add an H-pipe in. I'd like to at least rebuild the bottom end of the engine as well, and use that as an excuse to make it a 383...either that, or swap blocks and go for a 406! Regardless of how I do it, my horsepower target is at least 350...which shouldn't be too hard to hit, especially if I add the big cubes.

It's all dependent on funds...

That, and I also need to figure out why my 700R4 won't stay in first gear when it should be. Either that, or I need to adjust the governor so that WOT shifts happen on their own at 5500RPM instead of 4100RPM...
