Short video of the new engine.

Some was shot by my 9 year old, so it's a little shakey.

and was taking it easy coming back from PA. I have not had it
above about 5K so far. Need to get some wheel time to
get comfortable with it.

Build was by L&M in PA. Here is what I know, cam specs were
not provided as he considers this info a trade secret.

Very nice car, and the sound is awesome. You were right about it being a little bit shaky, but your 9 year old did a good job filming the car. What size is your exhaust system and which mufflers are you running?
