flight96 ... looking good!! im interested to see what response comes back on the moisture question.. my motor is sitting in a bag until it goes into the 69... the builder put a good amount of assembly lube when building and we plan on priming the motor and turning it over by hand before it cranks the first time. congrats on all of your progress!!:rockon:

interesting, i have all of the pro-motorsports kits installed on my car. this would seem to tie in very well with the eccentric eliminator kit. hope to have my car on the road soon, i may pick one of these up before the motor goes in. thanks for the post:tongue_smilie:

1BAD351 nice spreadsheet.... plug my numbers in when you have a moment...:tongue_smilie: i ended up with a early viper trans with the .50 6th and 3.77 gears. long story .. i sent my 9" 31 spline center to moser for a daytona pinion support and 3.73 gears ... they didnt have any 3.73 in stock at the time and made me a deal on some 3.77 that someone backed out on ... so it worked out. sent my stock axles to them also to measure for the new 31 spline axles... no guessing if i measured it out the correct way. according to compcams dynomation software with my stroked 408W, AFD 2V canted valve heads and 304HR cam, single plane intake, Cam RPM range is 3000 to 6500 with peak torque @ 5000 rpm and peak HP @ 6500. wheels are 16x8 with soon to be 245. 45. 16 on all 4 corners... Viper T56 1st Gear 2.66:1 2nd Gear 1.78:1 3rd Gear 1.30:1 4th Gear 1.00:1 5th Gear 0.74:1 6th Gear 0.50:1 i hope to have my 69 on the road by the end of this month... april 09.... :punk:
