It's ALIVE-the 9 liter is in and running!
Got the beast running saturday afternoon and set the carb, timing and idle. Runs perfect till ya stomp on her, then she backfires a bit from being to lean. I believe that my pressure regulator is defective (gauge is reading 3lbs@idle). I have a 170gph mechanical holley pump so from there I can figure out why she's starving.

Actually it's a 548cu. It has a 4.25 stroke and a 4.530 bore. I want to get a low 12 second pass with street tires.

What are the specs of that engine? Looks good and I bet will run like a beast.

Hey Crossy,
Sorry I missed you in wildwood this weekend. It was all I could do to get this thing running. I will post some times in a week or two. I still need exhaust and I'm going to sump my stock tank and run some -10AN line to the pump. These Kumho's might surprise you guys at the track..... Motor is a MERLIN III with some Ray Franks Pro-Filer 24° 350cc oval port heads(yes oval) 4340 crank and H-beam rods (internal balance) MSD HEI and Holley 850.

I got the 712's. I will eventually buy some slicks but I want to nail down a real street time. I personally want to know what my 1/4 mile time is on the tires I cruise around on are. The 14.2 in my sig could've been a 13.5 with E.T. streets and the 383cu. This truck is gonna have some great street manners so I can surprise some people. Not the best time to swap in a 9.0 with gas @ 1.79 for 93octane.
