!!! Trans am project finially together and "running"

im not sure this is the place for a post like this if it is tell me ill move it

89 firebird origionally 305tpi car some idiot had a turboed 2.8 in befor i bought the shell


finially fixed my motor mount problems (felt quite stupid after) wired it up and started just fine no smoke no noises clean running, heres what the engine has as of now:

74 z28 350 4bolt
someone put a mild crane cam in befor i got ahold of it and a double roller (lopes just a little bit)
holly contender intake
670 cfm holly street avenger
headers (who knows what kind ha ha)
3 inch catless with a super 44 flowmaster (taken from my camaro for time being)
and a tci streetfighter th350 with a b&m 2200 stall

i drove it around for a bit to make sure everything worked did just fine and we put it on our senior techs dyno (he owns a performance shop here in town) results were better than i expected for an engine with no rebuild since 74


peak horse was 286 @4900
torque was 320 @ 2800

now that i know it runs well im pulling the heads tommorow match porting the heads to intake and headers new head gaskets fresh oil change and putting crane gold roller rockers in (i was told by the person who i got the engine from the lifters were replaced with the cam and chain 8k miles befor he totaled the camaro) after this is all done ill re dyno and post results
