We've got everything ready with the exception of the short block.

Cam, Heads, Rods, and Pistons all ready to be sent out to Kammer Racing
for some of his magic on the Mopar blocks. :) (Should be in the truck
by March at the latest.)

If all goes well, she'll hit mid to high 13's without any problems.
Well..with the exception of the transmission and driveline (but that's a
whole-nother story.) ;)

- Bernd

Actually Bernd that's a very respectable time for a V-8 much less a V-6.
I'm curious to see how much faster you can make it. Keep it up!! Sam
