Basically the 232/234 .595/.598 cam, 918 springs, 7.450" push rods, double roller timing chain set, rebuilt heads, all new bearings, ARP head bolts for when i get out of school... :) forged mahle pistons and rings
(-4cc valve reliefs), x-pipe with 30 series flows, and built trans with the yank 3600... Should be a good street car...

I will, but the surge is my foot... It was the first start and i didn't want to get it over 1500 RPM... it would get to the mid 1k range I'd let off a little and it'd try and die.... I should have video this wkend...

That's awesome. There's nothing more exciting than starting up a new engine for the first. Ok well maybe when a new girl is about to inhale your dork, but the two are comparable.
