Well it's been a long time, and the project is finally almost over. I drove my truck for the first time with the new motor. Let me start by saying look at my sig. It's tubbed, roll cage etc...it has a 18.5 inch M/T's tires on the rear. Well I was taking it easy, and just gave it a little bit of gas, and it was like a top fuel dragster! It left huge tire marks, just roasted the tires. I was shocked! I knew the new motor would be strong but..OMG. I took it up to 5,900 once and there is NO doubt with some traction/slicks it'll lift the wheels 3ft+ at the strip. The motor guy, said the motor will turn 7,500rpm easy. So needless to say I'm pumped, taking it wednesday morning to get the exhaust put on. I was going to take some pics to post but the batterys in my digital camera went dead. That always happens when I actually want to take a pic of something important to me. Another thing is I cruised around for 15 minutes and the beast didn't get over 170! Ok, Ok, sorry I'll stop, I'm just sooooo excited.
