FINALLY gettin er DONE! TMeyer package with .040 over flat tops, Lunati Voodoo cam, Edelbrock 650 CFM Thunder series Carb and Weiand 8010 Intake!

 

OH YEAH! WE LOVE PICS!!! Looking good bud!

 

Got her painted up last night!

 

 

Dayum!! That is sexy!!!

 

Thanks! Didn't get a chance to work on her tonight though. Can't hardly take it!

 

Looks sexeh....but I would still have put a 460 in at this point....but that motor will scream either way.

 

Awesome. Love to see a 400 getting built up!

 

The parts required to do the swap add up in a hurry

 

Intake on



Valve covers on



Frame painted



Best Hoist EVER!



Made the little guy do the tight work, lol



Cam Break-in!!!

 

I hope to rebuild my 400 someday, looking good!!

 

So how's she running after the cam break in?

 

Cam break-in was flawless. I've put 30-40 miles on her so far and runs GREAT! However, Tim Meyer did come across my pics on the 335 forum and contacted me with a concern. He said he's never built a 400 with a flat tappet set-up, and was concerned about the stock rockers binding up from the amount of Exh. lift, and possibly causing lobe problems with the cam, or pushrod issues. So, I'm gonna pull the valve covers and double check that I'm not "bottoming out" the rocker arms. Don't think it's an issue, but want to be sure. Other than that, she's runnin like a top!

 

And by the way, it saddened me to have to hook the exhaust system back up. It sure sounded AWESOME runnin open headers!

 

nicely done!

now with all this teasing of how it sounds where is the VIDEO!
