Latest project
« on: April 07, 2009, 03:07:05 pm »
Since I'm out of work, I've been doing various little projects, now for a bigger one. 

I just finished Heads, cam, and headers package on a 94 Camaro for a guy here.  So a friend of ours froze and cracked the block severely in her boat.  It was a GM V6 and  just a replacement short block was going to be $1500 without any labor.  So I told her that a V8 would be cheaper and with little modifications to get it to work.  So I had a spare 350 that just needed a freshening up, which is done now, and here are some pictures of todays progress.

I responded in that thread.  Where as I'm out of work, I don't have any money to even go race.  I have all the time in the world, but without a job = no $$$$  I'm getting just enough on unemployment to pay all my bills, and $0 for gas to go anywhere. :(

BTW - I've been out of work since October.
