LOL, I already told Chris (guy at Comp) he’d be getting an angry call if the recommended cam is too tame! Lemme know if/when you’re in town, would love to meet up.

WooooHoooo, received an email with my cam specs from Comp late this afternoon, so below is a screenshot. One thing that will differ is the rocker ratio; the cam card calls for 1.6 rockers but I plan on running 1.7’s so the intake lift will be just under .600 and the exhaust will be just over...

As much as I’d like to check out the show I have little hope of having the time off to attend; we’re so shorthanded my team and I have all been working 6-7 days a week. Hope you have a great time, I’ve enjoyed the show in the past and hope it’s well attended.

Every time I think I’m going to make some progress something always gets in the way; this time it’s been work, where I’ve working 6-7 days a week, which means I’m not really in much of a mood to go out and work on the Fury, but over the past couple weeks I’ve received my new front and rear...

Hey Mal, hope you and your family are enjoying a fantastic holiday season! Thanks for the info on the Hughes rockers, they are going to be my choice as well. I’m curious how you get oil to the rockers?

Yea, def familiar, and that part of CA looks very similar to the coastline south of San Francisco, where I used to live.

Since the Fury is destined to be a street car I just couldn’t see pushing the CR any higher than 11:1, which is right on the edge of compatible with the gas we have around here, but I got away with it on my Vette and figure I can pull it off here too. No, I haven’t bought the rockers yet but I’d...

I was just looking at your garage thread and instantly noticed the home styles, weather, and the hilly terrain, all of which made me think of my former home of Pacifica and San Bruno, both of which could easily be mistaken for where you live! Am I anywhere close, geographically? When I built...

Hey fellas, I’m getting ready to buy new front and rear glass, along with all new trim clios for both windows, but I’m seeing 2 kinds of clips, 1 is about 1”x1/2” and the other is about 1” square, so I’m wondering what the correct placement for each type is? I’ll grab a picture of what I’m...

Hi Ck, glad to be back! Pulled the car out of storage and brought it home, but that necessitated my building a 16’ x8’ shed to hold parts, tools, etc. All good now though so I’ll keep pressing on.

Hey Mal, Been a long talk me, hope you and your family are all well. I picked up a set of Edelbrock Victor Max Wedge heads and will be using them with a .0039-.0045 head gasket for around an 11:1 cr. The ports are sizeable but with the cubic inch I’m running I think they’re a pretty good match...

Wow, it’s been ages since I last posted but there’s been a lot of life changes in the past couple years. Regardless, there has been some progress on the Fury and I’ll start posting details again so here are a couple shots to show what I’ve been up to lately: Yep, that’s a 440Source 512”...

Well it's happened, I pulled the Fury from the shop, along with all my tools, and put them all in a storage locker. I've taken a position with a start-up and it has me traveling around the country endlessly so there just isn't time to get back here and work on it. It breaks my heart to do it...

Sounds like you know my beast well!

Hey Carl, Yea, excellent “grommet”, and would have saved my having to de-pin, but far larger than I wanted to use; my goal is to keep the firewall as clean as I possibly can, whether it’s grommets, wires, reservoirs, etc. Thanks again for the continued support and suggestion!

Thanks much, I really appreciate it.

Been away from the Fury for a few days because of a trade-show but while I was gone my SpeedHut gauges showed up, and DAMN, I could not be happier with how they turned out! Made sure the paper templates I'd laid out were accurately sized, and once I'd ensured they were I used a couple...

Been working steadily on the Fury, bouncing back and forth between different areas of the car while I wait for pieces to arrive, adhesive to dry, etc. While waiting for the adhesive to dry around the edges of the headliner I decided to start working on the gauge cluster/layout. My gauges...

Once I got the headliner lined up front to rear I began using spring clips to hold it in place. I bought 144 of the clips online and ended up using about 100 during the install, so glad I bought enough! I marked the outer edge of the roof line on the headliner and applied contact cement to...

I realized the weatherstripping could not be completed until the headliner was in place, so after years of concern and hesitation I bought a headliner and got down to installing it. I found mine on ebay from classicautotrimnv for about 1/2 the cost of the big guys, and spoiler alert, it fit...
