Yep... I rebuilt the 289 two months ago. I like both, but perfer to work on the 289 becasue of the lack of wiring harnesses.

that timing cover looks like it could use a good powder coating job.

i would, but i dont have any extra money laying around. One of my heads may be bad too. Alabama Cylinder head sells Remanufactured heads that have been over heated hard core. It started to eat at the cam journal, so tommorow the measurements on the heads will be in saying if it will be a safe head or not.

Makin good progress! You should be able to hit that 12.99. My Saleen went 13.1 on a 125 shot with all stock internals, just an intake and exhaust plus nitrous. Originally Posted by MustangMatt96GT
