Default Placing My Order With Jeg's Today!

Yes, that is right I've decided that today I'm going to place another order. Here is everything that I'm getting:

ARP Main Stud Kit
ARP Wave-Loc 7/16" Rod Bolts
ARP Timing Cover Stud Kit
ARP Water Pump Bolts
ARP Oil Pump Bolt & Stud Kit
Moroso Oil Pump Shaft
Plasti-Gauge
Comp Cams Magnum 294S Cam :yesnod:
Matching Double Valve Springs
10* Titanium Keepers
Comp Cams Solid Lifters

I'm still battling off the thought of the Magnum 306S....I'm doing everything in my power to keep myself from ordering it (it's just sooo tempting)! Jeez oh man the most expensive part of this engine is those darn ARP bolts! Once I get these items I only need a few misc. things and the engine is complete (i.e. oil pan, some bolts, pushrods and a few others). This order will allow me to completely build the short block and bolt the heads on. By the time my uncle and I get the short block together, I should have enough money saved to place another order for the remainding items :).

Finally starting to make some real progress! :cheers:

Good Luck Bence13_33....
Keep us informed, ( I know you will ) I am sure that there are many forum members like myself that will be interested in your progress. Should be quite a machine when completed.

Melling high volume oil pump. I decided upon the high volume over the stock pump because I am going with a larger oil pan (6qrt + Filter).

Well, I just placed my order with Jeg's and to say the least I was rather disappointed. They had everything that I ordered in stock, but the attitude of the person I talked to was very poor to say the least. The last time I ordered from them the guy on the other line was VERY friendly and knowledgable. The last time I ordered, I think I placed my order with one of their technical personal because I had a few questions....this time I didn't have any questions so I just pressed "1" to place my order. I just got to compare and contrast the difference in attitudes of a person who "enjoys his job" vs the person who is there to put in "a 9-5." Kind of felt like I was talking to a robot....

Oh well, I guess you'll have this. I can't wait to see the lobes on the cam :).

Joe:
I held out, my fair-minded half won this time :). The 294S will arrive sometime next week. For some odd reason I feel this emptiness inside because I didn't go with the 306 ;).

Shane,

I think you made the right cam choice(294S). That 306S is absolutely BRUTAL!!!!!!
