more like hauling ass home.. finally (first time since i came out in jun 05) waiting on last load of laundry to dry, eat then step off :) :fluffy:

replaced my worn out 305 that i had in there and put in a much fresher 454. the sbc bore is so worn out. the rings i put in ~50-60k ago dont seal. it needs bored out to go any farther :rolleyes: been working on putting the 454 in last 4 days it is def nice not needing to slip the clutch from a stop. est power of my bbc is 300/490 lot better then the 330/330 of the 305
