Post by: njbigblock on January 22, 2007, 03:43:05 PM
I just ordered HM 1080 from Mike. Plans call for a.030 over 429 I am building now in my garage. D0VE block with C8VE Ported heads , Weiand slealth ,if I can find a way to fit it, forged flat top pistons , and a hot hydraulic cam to bleed off some of my low end compression with the iron heads.I will couple it to a C6 I have with a street holeshot converter and 3:50 posi rear. Randy :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Feels good to have "Hurricane Owner" under your name doesn't it..... ;)

Welcome to the family. "The darkside" as someone has named it, awaits [smiley=evil.gif]..........

Congrats Randy...I'm still waiting for "approval" to order mine but coming soon I hope.  Did you order a soft top for it?  
Any special features or upgrades get added?   What plans for paint and such..?   Better warm up that camera and get a place ready for posting build pictures.   8-)

Welcome, Randy!

That's going to one scootin' car with a 429/C6!

What are you looking at for a delivery date?

Hi to all and thanks for your words of support! I will most likely get the soft top if its available and if it is,go for the heater option. I've got about 2 months or more before delivery (date not set yet , have to ask Mike) to build my motor the way i want , so I am having fun wearing out the Summit web site ordering parts for it. The UPS man looks all worn out coming to my house. ;D I plan to take many digital pictures , especially of any processes that appear vague in the manual , step by step and post them. Now I have to clean out my garage and move my boats and motorcycles so that I can easily work on the car. It will be all black , even the engine which will be black and some chrome with the replica wheels Hurricane sells. Black side exhaust. Darth Vader look. :)
