Rob, Good to see you on the site again. I was wondering where you've been.
Today we recieved the other set of rods. The custom Ferrea valves should be in sometime late next week, along with the custom overdrive, ATI dampner/pulley. ARP put us on the train again, and said that our studs will not be shipped until Feb 28th. Another 3 week delay. They were suppose to be here this week. The heads should be done in the next 2 weeks and then, we can FINALLY order the pistons. The stock torque converter was shipped out yesterday to Continental Converters for the 3500 stall upgrade. Well, thats all we have for today. Will keep you updated as always.

Here you go guy's. We have most of the parts for this project on the way. That means we have an excess inventory of parts. For those of you following this project, we will give you first dib's on what we have. We have left over 6.1 forged cranks, new 6.1 stock pistons and rod's, a complete balanced, rotating assembly for a 5.7 (slightly used, but in perfect condition), 5.7 blocks, 6.1 cam's and other misc parts for the 5.7 and 6.1 motors. Custom, JW Performance heads will also be available shortly, to HTC members. Let us know.

Thanks again
 
hemi2nv, that just awesome. I love reading this thread. So much to learn..
 
HMMMMM.... 6.1 cam; got any valve springs with those cams?

SSSHHHHHH, don't tell the wife I'm looking at this...

I'd be interested in one of the cams. Let me know.

Love the walk through, keep it up!
 
Hemi2nv, you're going to have to start up an HTC.com garage sale thread.

Hemi2nv- Great job detailing this, awsome use of resources. I like the flow of information here, helps us all learn a little bit more - just goes to show what can be accomplished - that Hemi Orange intake is the bomb, cant wait to hear what it will do on the dyno- keep up the good work, many kudo's to you.
(Anybody seen that 10 second Bee Truck?)

WOW! I just got home from a date with the wife and I can't believe my email messages. I will post pictures of all the parts we have to offer, and if your interested, reply to me with a PM. I will get back to everyone as soon as I can. From the looks of it, it might take a while. Hemi on!
 
Hehe...I don't think you'll have a problem getting rid of all of those parts!

Looking forward to seeing the pics and more writeup!
 
ok, more information Daytona on this 10 second Hemi Bee.

Sorry it's taken so long to post, but it's been a busy week. I appreciated all the emails, on the parts we have up for sale. It's a hard decission, since everyone wants the same, hard to find parts. Uniball, I know you need the 5.7 block. Right now it's being used as a model at our machine shop, for a unique F/I setup. When they're done with it, you will be the first to know. (A 5.7 truck intake will be part of the trade.) SRT10KILLR, I appriciate your offer for a 6.1 crank shaft, but a local engine builder gave me enough money for the three extra 6.1 crankshafts, that I couldn't refuse. All that is left is a brand new set of 6.1 rods and pistons, a 6.1 camshaft, a fully balanced 5.7 rotating assembly and a set of M&H RaceMaster drag radials.

Now let's get back to the topic:

ARP will be shipping the main studs and head studs next Tuesday. The Ferrea custom valves will be here next Tuesday. From the UPS tracking number, their in Jacksonville, Fl, as of today. The fully race, 5.7 Hemi heads, are awaiting their arival. Once the valve job is complete, we can order the pistons. It's all starting to come together!
