block was painted that Grabber Green.  I was so close to changing it to orange, but after painting the valve covers and painting the oil pan and timing cover...I am kinda wrapping my head around this.  Guy opens hood, guy blinded by mopar.  That's hat mopars are right? "LOUD"

Not sure if you ever decoded the fender tag.  Here are two screen shots with the codes for your tag.

Ok apparently my camera takes crappy pictures.  The only time I got a decent pic, it had a huge glare so I just wrote it down.

Ok, not much of an update for you guys but i'm excited!  Just got my shipment from Summit, MSD distributor, the CORRECT pickup tube, 1 3/4" headers, Protorque mini starter, plug wires, aluminum radiator (the side mounts on each side are bent to hell, but i'm pretty sure I can bend them back without much of a problem), Adjustable fan temp controller (for the electric fan I haven't ordered yet), Mopar performance black wrinkle air cleaner and valve covers. 

Transmission overhaul kit on the way, should be here Monday. 

Today, I'm going to be degreasing the 727 and buttoning the bottom end up, well..assuming all the correct bolts are there.

So, I finally came across the numbers on the cam and it turns out that it is basically a stock replacement.  Well that's not gonna work, so I'll be pulling the cam and ordering a new one.  I'll probably have to get the dual valve springs but for about 300 bucks I can have it more to my liking.
