Brandon, I've been in your shoes... Do yourself a favor (my buddy gave me the same advise). Put that car in the garage for 2 weeks, and then decide if you really want to sell it. I get so mad I'd like to blow it up, but then I realise that it would be unreasonable to sell it cheap, and I just need to fix the da....darn thing. You will probably change your mind before then to keep it, and fix it.

These are hobby cars, and if you sell it, you will probably end up replacing it with another hobby car, wishing you still had that 383 to work with.

Your car, your decision.

I hear ya man. Its been sitting for 2 weeks now. I did get to do a air leak down test today and had no leaks any where. Sooo that's a plus. I have to talk to my guy tomorrow and see what he has to say . Thanks for the advice but c4 probably ruined me from ever wanting another project car lol
