Yowza. That's a pretty deep breathing cam it looks like. Interesting to see those healthy spec's along with a smoothish-idle 114 LSA.
What is the advertised power range if they give it?

Appreciate it!
That's crazy considering how I'm only a few mins from Redmond!
First time the truck has been outside the garage for close to a year, looks good with the rear axle sitting 1" back. Going to replace the front 2.5" springs w/ 3.5" to help level things out more once the motor goes in.
Wow scary! Glad it wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been.Apologies on the the huge delay! We relocated the family to Le Claire, Iowa & have had a very busy year.
The project is starting back up & I hope to have it driving before end of July. Going through the parts previously purchased I was very surprised to find scorpion rockers, reduced travel hydraulic roller lifters, & a timing set. Next step will be ordering the cam & getting an adjustable push rod to measure the correct length before ordering. Given the likelyhood we'll be in the Midwest for the foreseeable future, I'm going to upgrade my CVF serpentine kit to now include AC & power steering.
With that said, I recently took a fishing trip on lake Michigan with my inlaws & we got to talking about the bronco. It led to my wife's uncle sending me a free set of vintage rails for the top. Just missing one bracket, I think I'll have 4 new brackets fabricated then get everything blasted & powdercoated.
What happens when you try to roll your bronco down your driveway by yourself...Luckily I was able to get it to turn by throwing a wheel chock under the front tire.

Such a nice build, that motor is going to be a beast. I know you’re planning on black for the engine bay - but it sure would stand out if you went body color. Just my $0.02, (mine is black from the PO). If ever have to pull my motor I’d definitely paint to match.
