And I'm just here hoping I can have mine back up and running before winter is in full swing :(

Machine shop has been very busy with a lot of diesel stuff (the diesel drags were going on) and it took awhile to get settled on what was needed. Waiting on JEForged to send me some pistons with valve reliefs cut in them to clear the lift of the new cam.

Isn't this the Firebird with the built 3.8?

Yeah, it's getting rebuilt after it broke off a valve from too much lift (my mistake).

Getting it done right, just taking time to get there.

Way to go on not swapping in an LS and using what you had!

Thanks, I know the machine shop is enjoying doing something a bit out of the ordinary. The owners are a couple of old turbo Buick fans.

Haha yeah, originally planned to sell the Bird but gave my wife the Mazda. It's been a real trooper!
