Thank you everyone! I posted some pictures of the engine in the Graffiti thread, so here are those as well. I didn't detail anything yet. This is how the 521 looks after I pulled it out of my 66 Fairlane last Fall. This was the first engine I ever built by myself back in 2006, and so far after 5000 miles, many passes at the Drag Strip and street miles, it's still together. LOL I even file fit all the rings and had to modify the main support and windage tray to fit. This will be behind a TCI Full Competition C6 with a street fighter 10" 3500 stall converter, which use to be in my Fairlane when I had a mild 472 engine in it. I had a 4-speed in the Fairlane with the 521, so I haven't had this engine/trans combo together yet. I will give the litany of parts for this engine.

Never had it dyno'd, but the Ford crate engine with most of this stuff put out 600HP. I think with my amateur build, I have to have at least 550-575, with tons of torque. I think it will be right at home in our little 32.
