    Any project that runs, even for a few seconds, is a milestone in any build. Nice work sir, very nice.

    She's looking good and those headers sound excellent.

  • @EdOfTheNorth
    @EdOfTheNorth 2 года назад +14

    I think your headers sound really good. And their being installed on a 327 just make them even more impressive. Next to the 283, the 327 was GM's greatest motor in my book. Simple, lots of power to get the job done and they simply run forever. The best balanced motor I've ever laid my hands on.
    Thanks for the videos Brent. Not boring at all.......ever!

  • @billleigh615

    Well the end is near, before you know it, it is upon us. The truck really is looking better and better the more things you get done on it. That's going to be a blast to drive, you may have to add some weight to the back to help get traction. Another job on it's way to being well done my friend.
