So I got the new v-8 in my 240, and after breakin it in and adjusting the valves and timing I started it and let it idle, and I heard the sweetest sound I know of... that thumpity thump of a decent size cam.

 

I am even more happy with the way it drove. a far cry from the tired kragen special motor that I had in there before that dyno'ed at 157 HP.

 

can't wait to get on the dyno again..
