Big Red Update: The Engine

The machine shop finished up with the engine last week. I drove down to check out the progress. As much as I like fast cars, I have never experienced a build as detailed as this. I was amazed at all of the little details that go into building something like this. To do it right you really have to kow your stuff.

I took a lot of video of the process. It looks pretty good and should make for a nice mini-movie of the build once everything is done. I'll hold off on the video clips for now, but here are a bunch of pics.

That's some good stuff that you don't see too often right there. How much square footage does Jason have in his shop?

Hey Gary:

What are you doing to your engine? Are you doing a N/A car or working on the engine for a big TT?

Looks awesome!
