Got a pleasant surprise today. The serious motor head publication "Engine Builders" selected my LT5 427 stroker project as their Engine of the Month for September. Feels like I made the cover of the "Rolling Stone"
Big thanks to all the folks who help me out on this project.

Phil, did you actually test that engine on an engine dyno? I can?t remember. Also, I thought the old AES from Chicago did your liners. Article says darton/Pete did them?

Awesome Phil!!! Well deserved recognition!
I know its a magazine that focuses on engine builds but I'd imagine they'd have been just as blown away by the attention to detail on the rest of your car!!!

Love it. Phil, how?s that motor running? I?d love to test it. Even on a chassis dyno. It has the best of almost everything. A very nice build.
