[RWKHausSupply]

[Talyn]

Delivered from your storage unit? How long has it been sitting there?

Oh. Out of storage too?

Edelbrock called me yesterday, and Summit confirmed this A.M. that the head had shipped. I ordered it months ago and finally....BTW I verified with UPS that it would arrive Monday via tracking number. I am the one that was going postal as this is one factor holding up the completion of my Boosted, Stroked, 4.0. Meth/Water injection Kenne-Belle enhanced ignition and fuel systems, etc.

I supposedly got the first head. Might be true as I have bugged the **** out of them both.

Thank you for the kind words. I wanted to run Nitrous too but was advised against it. Now have to start thinking about some upgrades to the front/rear end. Don't think the stock limited slip Dana will last long. Luckily for me the person running this project is an XJ expert.

It's funny how power grows on you. I started with a ported and polished stock head, 62mm bored throttle body, and Banks header and after CAT system. It all made a big difference at first. But I got used to it and wanted more.

I can just imagine your D35, in parts, scattered down my street.
May be time to find a stronger rear axle.

It wouldn't be the first Dana I have scattered. Looking at the Chrysler 8.25.
I don't know about the front until I consult with a higher authority. If anyone knows a source for a good 8.25 in SoCal area I'm all ears.

Wonder if you can get a Mopar B or E Body style Dana 60 for the rea, maybe even see if one can be made for the front too. Those were factory on the 440ci 6Pack/6bbl and Hemi cars when optioned with the 4 speed manuals, plus they should be close in width as well as have a 5×4.5" bolt pattern.
