Getting there, finally

[Speedrdr]

After a really long time (and motor $$) the Bronco is closer to being home. I'm hoping I'll be over the shoulder surgery enough where I can get busy on the rest of what needs doing. A few pics of what I've got to work with.

Looks like a great start!

A little bit every day man, you'll get there. Good looking motor to start with!

Thanks. I have an "estimated" from the engine builder of around 450 HP. As he has been in the high performance engine biz for years, think I'll wait for a dyno run. As rough as the outside looks, I'm almost ashamed to put that pretty of a motor in it. lol
It's a roller motor and he was able to do a roller cam, roller rockers, edlebrock dual plane manifold and carb. He told me he was a little concerned about putting that much HP in that short of a vehicle.

Thats alot of motor, but, I guess it comes down to how its driven....I couldn't keep my 170 six right side up!

I'm old enough now and broke enough drive train parts On my first EB to be able to use the 'foot feed' with care. I'm not saying I won't have a wild hair, but am too cheap now. lol
