Wow! it is so cool to see all of the projects from across the country in Americas garages. I love to see the projects that everyone is working on. It is one thing to read about professional projects but to see us all involved in our own grass roots hot rodding projects is another. You are the only ones who know how to build a project on a budget in your own garage with limited funding and time. You all are doing a fabulous job from the smallest undertaking to the largest. Taking a car apart for a frame off has been an awesome, fun and frustrating time. Keep up the good work guys. it looks great. And thanks for putting my corvette in the mag.

My engine is finally done it is a 383 four bolt main with AFR 210 heads. With the single plane manifold it dynos out at 524h with 497 torque. but the single plane has to go as it won't fit under the stock hood of my vette. My B&M TH400 tranny is also done and ready to go. Again congrats to all of you for a great job on your projects.

You're welcome Jim, and thanks for taking the time to send in your entry. We ask for a lot of specific things, and some of them aren't easy. Good luck getting your Corvette on the road, and please send us an update when it is all finished.

Hey Jim, you've got a great project as well!  (In fact, your story is one of the "human interest" ones that I was referring to in my post in this forum.)

...has been an awesome, fun and frustrating time.
Man, I can sure relate to that!

Best of luck getting your Vette back on the road quickly - it should be a LOT of fun when it's done!
