I put it put and said now liaten.I said you hear one is really rapping out and one a deeper thud? He said ya I can hear it.The one really rapping up is the Coupe because it's a small block.The Big Block in the 55 Has the deeper thud sound.The one at the end was a Complete Different car.It had a 454 From a 1970 Chevelle LS6 Engine but had like a 488 gear or something really low.When they took off and the One that rapped really tight really quick was the 55.I read that was the actual sound it made

I counted 0-100 in 11 sec. would be a lot less with a good hook-up.

0:19 - 0:28 is not 5 seconds. It's 9 seconds to most people who have passed 2nd grade.

It sure has awesome oil pressure.Pegs 80 psi in a nano second... Great machine you have there, engine sounds like they put it together correctly. I'd run Amsoil through her, or a full synthetic racing oil, changed every2500 to 3000 miles. She's a Runner! ( Said the dude in Roadhouse to Dalton when buying his Riveria, withclamshell headlights. That was supposed be in Mazurrah too... Not much here in Mazurrah anymore, except Hiedi Fliess is moving to the Ozarks.. (Needs her a direct connection I guess)

I do run Amsoil and change it every other year since it gets maybe 200 miles a year put on it. After 3 machine shops messed it up and blowing my motor I decided to do it all myself. I kept very tight tolerances everywhere I could. Thank you for noticing!

Minnesoda.This was my first engine build. I did a lot of research and bought a lot of measuring instruments. I could do a lot better if I did it again.

Your speedometer is not working right it should not drop like a tach. Engine sounds great !
