71' Cuda

Original 340 N96 4speed heater delete car. After 7years apart I finally got it back together! I'm happy for now... oh yeah, replaced the original train train with a complete Hemi drive train. Just one of the many stories I have with this rebuild. After the initial breaking in of the Hydraulic Comp Cam, I noticed the engine didn't sound too healthy. Tried tuning for a few miles but still wasn't sure why it felt "sick"... Finally adjusted the valves for the last time and found out that some tappets were making alot of unusual noises. Pulled a tappet out for an inspection and found it was grounded to the core...That was it! A newly rebuilt engine shot! Like an insane madman on a mission, I had no other choice but to pull that 850lb. of metal right back out and re-do what took me a couple of months in 1 week. Again, that's one story. Now that the cars is running awesome, I have no regrets! BTW here's some pics. Njoy...

Sorry, pics were too large. Finally got 'em posted.
P.S. If your visiting Hawaii and cruising down Waikiki on a late Saturday or Sunday afternoon, You may see and (definitely) hear this car cruising around. :rolleyes:
