3/31/14 Update-
The motor is together and IN THE CAR!! Can't wait for the next couple of days and to hear her start up for the first time. Looks so much cleaner than before and knowing this thing is built right gives me some serious peace of mind. More pics to follow in the next couple of days :thumb up:

She's alive!!!!!
She fired up for the first time today and sounds sooooo good. It's been 8 months since i heard this thing run. Here's a video of the first start up. There's a small exhaust leak somewhere that's got to be fixed. And i'm on my way to the shop right now to watch the final tuning. I'll post another video asap!

Final numbers and video
Well, I'm pretty pumped to say the least. My goals starting this build were to break 500 hp and 450 tq. We did that plus some. The final numbers were 511 rwhp and 462 rwtq at 18 psi on a mustang dyno. Roughly 590 rwhp and 530 rwtq on a dyno jet. This was on pump 93 octane. Eventually we're going to do an e85 tune also and hope to come close to 600 rwhp.
Here's a video on the dyno and a picture of the final dyno sheet.
