So the engine decision has been made, and I have gotten myself in line to have an engine built for me. I thought about it quite a bit, and talked it over with Jenny, and came to the conclusion that it is worth the extra cost to have an experienced professional do the engine work. I shouldn’t have to do this again, so paying to have it done right the first time is well worth it.

The motor will be built by Hap Waldrop at the ACME Speed Shop, and is getting the full performance treatment. The main focus is performance and reliability, so I won’t be spending any extra for the shiny bits. This is not a race car, so that informs the process as well. It is going to be a nice, quick motor.

So now it is time to tackle the disc brake conversion, and freshen up the suspension. Going to be a busy (and somewhat expensive) few months, but by spring time I should have a nice running, quick, and solid Tunebug. Woohoo!
