I like those spark plugs. Those are sweet lol. They should carry spark well. Looks good.
What is that? 350, 400, 383?!?

Thanks guys... Here's the vital info.. it came out a little hotter than I planned because I bought my heads second hand, and never imagined they would have been milled. Just out of curiosity I cc'd them and the chambers are 70cc instead of the production 76cc. I based my CR calculations on 76 and wanted to be safe on pump gas. This change puts me around 11.5:1 which should be interesting.
Block: 010 2 bolt .030 over (thanks Xhiron)
Heads: World Products S/R ported to 180cc on the intake side
Crank: Production 400 turned to fit 350 mains
Rods: Production LT1
Pistons: Keith Black Signature Series Domes
Cam: Comp XE284H (.510 exhaust)
Intake: "Professional Products" air gap
Carb: Holley 780 VS (after break in and dyno will be replaced with a DP)
I used all ARP hardware for the first time as well...
Quick question: When you guys put the sealant on your head bolts... how far up the threads do you usually go? I used Permatex #2 BTW.
