Well where do I start? Im not real good at talking about myself but here goes. Im 37 years old, two boys 12 and 11 and thankfully divorced. Im a motorcycle mechanic for a dealership about 50 miles from home. Been in bikes for about 20 years, used to work on cars but bikes are much cleaner. I used to ride some but sold everything I had when I got married and figured I would stick to cars from then on. About 25 years ago my dad and I bought a 427 side oiler short block at a swap meet and we intended on building a cobra. Well that never happened and I still have this engine that needs a home. Well after some thinking on the subject I figured I would look into doing something a little different, I mean everyone builds a cobra. So I think Ive settled on the GT40 thing. Im still doing searches and making phone calls and trying to do a little planning. Not real sure if the 427 thing is doable yet, seems everyone is going with small blocks, but thats not a problem either, I have a few of them sitting around also. But, I do like to be different. So here we go. Im looking forward to asking questions and getting this project going.
