Are you going to make it to the first T&T day? Any updates on the Dodge?

I should be going out to the first T&T with the dodge. Just have to do some very small things now, to basically make it pass tech, driveshaft loop, battery holddown, buy better battery, install new ignition switch, etc...
Have alot of small stuff to do to it, bbut will probally take it down to the new shop this week to work on it when we are slow (stepdad and i rented a shop a few towns over) Im just going to go over all of my welds again, and nut and bolt it to make sure everything is ok to go.
But i did do a cam job on another guys 400, and have been thinking about really tearing into my truck engine, new bearings, higher CR pistons to bump it up form 7.9:1 to 9.4:1 or so and change a cam and throw in all new gaskets and do some headwork to it.. to you know.. make it tow the dodge better lol (making a pass in the 13's would be nice too)

Finally got the remainder of the engine together.
Also finished the motor mounts, finished the transmission rebuild and drilled some holes int the fire wall to help heat and air escape out the cowl.
We should be able to get the motor and trans back in on saturday and hear it run for the first time in 6 months.
