I'll get a detailed sheet of what he is doing to it. He knows my plans, but I know for sure planetarys are getting upgraded. He's an older guy been working on transmissions for 45 years.

Ill betcha a new radiator you dont get done in a month

You mentioned new valve covers in your post so I thought you went with romeo heads. Why you need new ones?

The drum and a TC are the most expensive parts. I bought mine then took all the parts to the builder..

Assuming the olivers are +/- .5 grams then I will def have the rotating assembly and heads on.

I don't really need new ones, either painting the existing ones or going with a set of blue "Powered by ford"

When its all said and done, prolly another 3 months of downtime. Weather dependent.

The blue powered by ford's must be aftermarket, because they only came on DOHC 5.4's in the GT. Thats as far as I know..

Yea. Thats where the idea came from. Haha if it don't cost to much I'm going to have "Hand built with pride by Derek Fields" on the silver part of the covers.

I would agree to that. lol
His is for hp though. Those numbers aren't that important to me except at 5252rpm (hp and tq) are the same. I would like to see 750 but I should have plenty of room to upgrade later on.
