Is the engine your putting in fuel injected or carb.?

it was throttle body injected, im converting it to a 4 barrel carb with an edelbrock intake manifold and some vortec heads. eventually i will convert it to sequential efi but not for a couple years, that part will be $$$$. you could probably find a running gm car or truck with a crappy body for cheap and do it that way, i bought my engine with an auto transmission and transfer case for $400. case and trans sold for around $275 so it cost me 125 for my engine. an older rwd buick with the 231 v6 can be had for nothing if you spend some time on craigslist around here.

it would be awesome to get a big luv meet going but its so much easier said than done, if there are a lot of peope who are interested in meeting up in the portland area we can make that happen if we can pick a date. the food network people finally left (and left a huge mess).
