Default Engine Builders - Engine of the Month

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?

Super job Phil.
Must be very satisfying to hit 650 hp!
