A bit of Red for Old Yeller

[Mopar Sam]

I am slowly making progress on getting this little truck motor running.

This is a 414" sb with a solid roller. The heads are the old Procomps that I plugged the pushrod holes on and am using iron W2 rockers. Compression came out to 11.4:1.

Just a mild little small block truck motor.

This is sure exciting to see!!! But I'd say "mild" is a bit modest

Trying to find a few minutes each day. I got headers on today.

I am just gonna use these 1 5/8" headers for now. Eventually I will make adapters for my W2 1 3/4" headers.

Prelubed the motor and, I snapped a quick pic of the ports and offset rockers before installing the intake.
