well here goes thanks to brian (draggin50) and a very hard and screwed weekend. the car is back up and running.
had everything go wrong that could have happened. broken bolts,timing chain cover cracked. the whole nine yards,but he got it done.
the gt40 heads are on and the bcam is in,explorer intake on,some painted peices even made its way back on the car.
really like the sound of the b cam. seems to run like a scalded dog now. which i dont really know how that is but will find out on a thursday for test and tune. :lol:
do have some pics that will get posted up as soon as i get them loaded up.
all in all im very happy with it and cant wait to see what the upgrades will do to the old numbers...........
