Talking Texas speed 429 First Crank!
Super elated it fired right up, especially with the manual ---> auto swap, E85 conversion, 1000cc injectors, and completely new engine/intake.

Now to tie up loose ends and get it on the road and let her eat!




HUGE thanks to Matt @ Texas-Speed, and all the other sponsors who helped me along with this extraordinary home project.

Good God! Let her eat hell. Pounce is more like it. That is one mean sounding cam. If I were just listening it almost sounds like a Pro Stocker.

Congrats on the DIY job, that's the way I like to do things too. Maybe someday mine will be packing a few more cubes. Have fun with it!
