Looking very nice indeed!!!

It's great to see a project done right with no short cuts.

Have you picked a color for it? It looks like the original color was Conda Green.

NICE Marco!

Please PLease PLEASE tell me you're going back to that original green color!

That motor looks sick! Is it a short-stroke 3.2?

I went back and looked at the cylinders. It looks like they are stock 3.2 with moon cuts for boattailing, but stock bore.

I figured you for a high-revving short-stroke kind of man.

Actually, Tyson, it's a 3.0-liter with "minor" mods inside. It's got a little bit of compression (13:1) so it'll be snappy as hell.

No way I'd ever paint it VOMIT green ... I'm not gonna drive a frrog. This is gonna be my Ode to Donahue circa 1973 917-30.

Oh, and you're right about the short-stroke, high revs. That's really my style and probably where I'm gonna go with the next project motor I'm going to build.

3.0 eh? Cool. Why the 3.2 barrels? Just happened to have them?


BTW, what's wrong with green? Viper green and Irish Green are two of my favorite early car colors.
