Looks good. What's particulars on the Carb? That's a sharp little mill. Good job.

its a 650 road demon i used for the break in on a stand but switched it out for a 750 holley with vac secondaries as the 650 wasnt enough for the lil 327 piggy!! it has 11:1 pistons but i lower the comp ratio by adding 72 cc heads so its more like 10 or 9.5:1 now but still likes to eat!!!
