I signed up a while back and never introduced myself. I have a 78 swb with a factory non emission 454/turbo 400. Factory ac, factory 12 bolt posi, '89 burb serpentine system, hooker comp long tubes Edelbrock performer rpm intake. Wheels and BFG tires 245/50/15s front and 295/50/15s rear ON 12" wide rims. and a lot of other stuff. Did all the work myself, and I have the heads in the machine shop right now getting 2.25/1.88 stainless valves cut into them. Should be pretty decent once I get it all back together...

Well it's going to be down for at least another week. Gotta get the crank turned and I might as well go ahead and replace the cam bearings and rings while I'm at it.
