VAC MOTORSPORTS did all of the bottom end machine work which included making room for the S62 crank bearing to fit , heads were done by someone George knows in CT. that does work for some of the Nascar crowd and the "Doctor" Mr. Dimitri Elgin did the Cams... VAC MOTORSPORTS will be putting the whole engine together for me after they receive all the parts...

Besides all of the glorious horsepower, did you have a problem with your original set up that warranted a rebuild? What a sick car. I love the stealth! When will the car be ready, a month or so?

No not really any reason to go crazy with the build it just sort of happened... I hope a month is a realistic time frame....
