Greetings from N. Colorado. Been working on my build for about three months. I thought I would finally post some progress. I must say first, This has been a great experience so far. A project that helps hone all my skills, making new (cobra) friends, getting re antiquated with old friends and seeing this beast slowly come to life. My garage has become the regular gathering place. I have watched these threads for some time now. There are great people, ideas, advice and direction. Glad to be part of this community.

Originally I was Going to do a 351C, stroked to 408. 4V heads, TKO600. Blue and white. As you guys know, plans change rather quickly. I have sold my 351C block and heads. I have now decided on a 351W stroker. Block is now at the machine shop(fingers crossed it all turns out well). Aftermarket alum heads. I have not decided which, but leaning towards the Edelbrock Vic jrs. Still doing the TKO trans.
So to get started I had to prep the garage. finished up building my cabinets and mounting the tool boxes. cleaned, organized and got everything ready for the arrival of my MK4
