Have you ran that efi connection stuff before? Ive been reading up on it and am very curious. And that old belt drive lathe in the background is awesome. Nice build also

Never ran there stuff lofts of efi stuff just not there's. This is my first propane build this engine should make around 600 on it. What lathe are you talking about because I have two.

Are you just running it for the timing aspect then? And what all is done to that motor to make that much power on pane?

I just have there coil pack conversion the msd box runs the timing. Engine is a 350 block bored 30 over with a 4" stroke crank 6" rod , 12.5 comp, afr 220 heads that have been hand ported howards roller cam custom grind, Rollie rockers, duel quad intake ported to match the heads and it's all been balinced and blueprinted should be a beast if it don't make enuff power I will switch it over to efi.

I'm subscribed on this one, I've been wanting to see a 4" crank in a 350 for a while, that should be a torque monster that shouldn't overheat as bad as a 400 block. Very cool setup

Looks killer. In the last pic you have stock shafts in the front are you planning on the 2" or have those already?

Nice setup looks pretty solid and clean. How much belly clearance and what's the wheelbase gonna be?

Thanks. Wheelbase is 120 and belly is 20.
