Nice!

A new mill is always an exciting moment.. I can't wait to have my 408 done.

You stole the engine, don't you feel bad??? ;)

well brodix-8 pro heads were made in the late 80s to mid 90s.
Jet titanium rods were big at the same time but the company seemed to disappear.
motor was stored for at lest 10 years but had good storage prep before hand.

motor is 13:1 compression so forced induction is outta the question.
Im not into the NOS thing either .
I wont race the car much anyhow.
sure I play around but at 48 years old Im just happy cruising and doing a few good burnouts lol.
mostly just do a few runs at the strip this year to see what she does.
