I have not updated for a little while. Im still having an issue with coolant pushing out, i had planned to do a shortblock but it turned out my front suspension needed attention. I will be doing another tech article soon about a front suspension for under 700 bucks. I ended up doing full roller uppers, lowers, and perches. With a bump steer kit, and shelby drop. Heres the start of the teardown. This was probably the fastest part as welding and fabbing up everything was time consuming

fab pictures, the lowers wernt finished at the time I took these

Machine work for my 293 is finished. Will be picking it up next week. Im building a 289/AOD combo, and Im looking for 400hp from it.

289 bored .030
Speed pro forged pistons
H beam rods

aluminum heads
stealth intake
holley 570 cfm street avenger carb
IIRC its a 2600-2800 stall converter with a stock AOD

I changed the wheels. Sold the welds and bought something different as I changed the reasoning behind the entire build.
