Shoulda listened to Dad....again.

My dad told me the engine I built for my 69 wasn't going to last in my 84 Silverado Daily Driver...I didn't listen. Thought it would be ok, but the cam snapped in 2, shot the back 1/2 through the back of the block, shattered 3 lifters and came to an abrupt halt when the back 1/2 of the cam got wedged in the hole in the flexplate...sooo, tomorrow it makes the 75 mile trip back home and into the shop to get doctored up, just for fun since I have time, I'll take a picture log of the work on the truck we progress. This is the truck...


and this is the engine(it was dynoed at 472hp)


It was about time to play with something anyway, so time for the fun to begin!
