Progress pics 427ci small block
Finally got the heads back from the machine shop and one final mock up before putting the heads on to get my pushrod length correct with the T&D shaft rockers. Hopefully will have it running in a couple of weeks
Couple of pics of the assembled heads, AFR 227 Eliminators, the heads flow what AFR says they do. I especially like the mid lift numbers where they flow 300cfm @ .500" lift :
Not much room between the valves, the intake valve is 2.100", they almost appear to be touching
Here is the Vic Jr. intake, it was port matched to the heads by AFR and it was flowed with the heads and the combination flowed well over 300cfm

Stupid '80's!
I'm eyeing the Tom's 12 bolt stuffed into the iron case...with a few mods it will fit our Vettes no problem. Of course I have no mechanical skills and even less patience when things don't work out perfectly, so this is the PERFECT choice for me.

It's not just the '80 rear end. Actually it is quite good. Even the iron case rears in earlier C3's can blow easily and I have seen more than one C5 blow a rear at the drag strip with stock motor so ours are pretty damn good. Mine has taken 500ft/lbs thru it many times. The Toms unit with the 12 bolt would be the ticket though
