that seems a bit long to myself.....under normal circumstances that is.  with the way everything is screwed up currently, not bad  :m

glad you got everything so far, wish i could say the same on my trans!

this will be a very nice addition to the rail and so will a sc maybe possibly some day????  :m :nw
  For dune use I feel a supercharger is best but twins would be a lot easier to do.  Honestly,I'm going to just enjoy the damn thing till it becomes boring and then decide what I'll do.

I can  completely understand that! 


Not sure is up with summit but damn they are having distribution and customer care issues. I got my southbend clutch for the pick up but not throw out arm. Southbend offers a heavy duty throw out arm for there heavy duty clutch. Claim its stronger then stock and stock wasn't that strong. I called South bend and asked when they might hVe the next run finished as I would really like it to replace the clutch.   ...she said we have plenty in stock. I e planned I bought from summit as southbend doesn't sell direct and was told to call summit and have them request. Drop ship. So 4 phone calls later I supposedly have a throw out arm shipping out today. Clutch showed up mon and that was 6 days after I ordered it. I get the supply chain issues but the gal at southbend said summit tries to wait for a large order rather then having items dropped shipped these days.

Hey hey, 50% of the order is a fantastic start  :m

Wonder why they really so far behind? I hope its not a 2 year project but it most def could turn into one at the rate parts are going out these days.

I started this damn project about June of 21. It'll be 2 years this June. With at least 4 months to get the custom Jesel steel shaft rockers it'll be then before I get all the parts at the soonest. bs1

Blame world wide shortage of nearly everything,many people flush with covid money creating a huge demand for parts and add to that the reality that all the major aftermarket big names are being bought up by RaceWinningBrands with nothing but bean counters running things and this crap is only getting worse.

True

The large investors have been buying up the ma and pa camp grounds too as well as many other businesses.  A surge in online jobs too.

how did the current v8 in your rail run out for 2022? i am sure the new engine will drag on for a bit because of parts delays and even more so if the current engine continues to run great!   ;D

So far the 360 '05 era nascrap has performed flawlessly, plenty of power. It dyno'd 580 at the wheel. My only concerns are the spindly crank and itty bitty valve stems.
