Very cool. What's it going on?

BBC for our mandella project, we were originally putting a KB hemi in it, but we would have had to cut the stringer for the dry sump pump and decided that in the long run a Chevrolet motor would be more reliable and make more power.

Looks great keep posting the pics. I used to work for a Granite company and we had 2 water jets they would cut through 2" of granite no problem. Awsome mahine to have.
