Well folks, I thought I'd show a few pics of my stroker 505 getting installed on Memorial day. My Dad (a vet btw) helped and was very excited to play with my tools.  :yesnod:

This should be road worthy by next weekend.

Enjoy!

I had it broken-in and dyno'd about 3 weeks ago. I have not finished the install yet. I still have to put in the radiator and some other misc. items. that will happen this weekend.

Nice work Mike !  :2thumbs:  Looks like the whole family was involved in the installation.  :icon_smile_big:

Looking forward to the first shakedown run report....it's gonna be a blast.  :icon_smile_cool:

Very cool that your Dad helped out on a day that is reserved to honoring those that serve. Him being a vet makes it all the more special.  :bow:

I have not had a chance to get good, full view shots of my Charger since it's completion. However, here is one that I took over a year ago just after I did the R/T stripes. Notice the odd black marks in the driveway. Somehow I think we'll have longer ones present in the near future...  :D

Ron, that's the honey and the girls and my Mom (and grandmom to my girls).

Did you notice the motor oil cans? Nope...NOT the Z1 flavor.  :smilielol:

Thanks folks.

Very nice, so what did it make on the Dyno with those cast manifolds ??

Really nice looking motor, but you better get that Oven Ready Turkey in the freezer or it's gonna spoil. :cheers:

Tell your pop, thanks for his service.

Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

Hey !!! I just found this !! Great work. I'd say nothing better to do than get a Vet involved on Vet Day. Looks great. Can we use some of these pics for the website !?!?!   How about a nice high def pic of the completed car.   Thanks again, guys.. Congrats
