Just wanted to post up a few pics of my build. Seems like there are a few of us building 370's on here so I'd thought I'd join the crowd and post up. Still have a few loose ends to tie up but it's coming together. It's getting there thanks to the help of a few people you might recognize from Grippy's build-up. Same master builder(Rex), same shop(WCCH), same mad scientist who put it together (Richard who stays behind the scenes) and similar pictures.

It's more of a sponsor build than anything:
WCCH 245cc Edelbrock Heads
FLT 4L80E LVL-5
STS GT-76
ABEAR Motorsports VC's
StylinConcept's BP's


Block before the **** get's his hands on it...

The **** finally got his hands on it...Some people just don't know how to respect other people's property...WHACK it again REX!!

Master Builder building masterfully

Crank, piston, rings, and a few Rods.

My Rods are on the far right. Left is stock(bent) Middle is Probe 4340 forged I-beams(Same as Grippy's). I'm gonna need a little extra beef for what I have planned.

Lined up and ready for their new home.

It's giving me blueballz just looking at it. Still have a few things to finish up.

 

Lookin good.

Cam?

 

looking good im anxious to see you get it in there

you using stock crank ?

and what final compression will you have

you runnin high boost or moderate boost + spray

 

glad to see you have Rex building your engine, he is Awesome! His knowledge and attention to detail is second to none!
I see he bought a new T-Shirt as well, LOL, good on ya Rex!

Did you go with the Ackerly & Childs Rings spec'd by Rex? Melling Oil Pump with the "bad ***" spring in there?

 

Looks purdy so far! Any man who builds engines while drinking Mt. Dew is a pro

 

I had that shirt but thought that it was good to wear second time around! And yes it has all the good stuff.

 

Good deal bro, I expect no less than the best from you! How's your Monster Truck motor coming along?
Unfortunately I'll be out to Sea again next week when it rains it pours

 

224/230 .050" of valve lift on each. I'll get all the specs out soon. Rex and I were going over it but I didn't grab the sheet he gave me.

 

you sure thats not the duration

 

Richard (aka the Brains) and Rex said the stock crank will hold up fine so we stayed with it.
Final compression is 8.8:1
I'm gonna be running a high boost appplication. I'm shooting for 20lbs-22lbs. I have to play around with my A/R housing first to see what works best. I have a pretty small one in there now.
