Sounds great. What cam are you running in it? I just finished waking mine up from a 5 year nap, and it sounds angry, but I'm not sure its as angry sounding as yours. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=682951

Yours sounds good Matt. I am not sure about the cam. Was told its a well build motor the owner was going to drag race the truck with. ( did not get it from the builder) It does have what looks to be a 10" converter and it has 1.6 roller rockers and Bow Tie Phase II heads. Have not been inside to see the internals.

I took it as a debt owed but he knew very little about it. I'm hoping to sell it when iIget ready io a few weeks to get back to work on my Suburban

Mine had the same attitude... after holding it to the floor for a few secs, she straightened out real real quick.
