Which VFN hood? I have the WSQ hood (LOVE IT!!!!)
My pistons are currently are DSS Forged 4.005" -3cc flat tops, with the 243 heads my CR is 11.4.1 So yeah I know I would either need to change the heads and pistons to get the CR down or convert over to E85 which is not an option here cause there may be only 1 station within 70 miles that might have E85.
I did my 403ci NA build on a budget to get it up and running. No regrets so far, just have gotten used to the power it puts down and getting a little bored. Last Oct at Gulfport 1/4mile I ran a 11.4 on street tires so it's not too slow. I gotta get some slicks to see how she'll really run though.

Currently we're putting together an F1C setup on a 403. CR is a little high at 9:1. The Hood I'm running is the Beast VFN hood. Took a little bit getting used to with the cowl being so tall but I like it. I love the WSQ hood but won't be able to fit my blower in there with the high mount. If I got the low mount I would have done the WSQ hood.

Got my car back from the shop today. Was there a couple days having the power steering leak addressed. All buttoned up, now, clean alternator and no more leak. Looking forward to several thousand trouble free miles.

Made a repair that benefited me in the long run. Changed out a wheel bearing but ended up replacing both in ordered to install my longer ARP wheel studs for the rear.
Don't think I'll have issues passing tech inspection now. I had to cut the caps off the lugs but worth it.
Got the cutout motor replaced and working again, it got taken out by what I think was an animal in Dec. Found fur on the bolts so same assumption. Learned that sometimes being too organized can bite you in the ass. When I did my carpet last year I tried to lay out the cable for the cutout along other wires in the car and zip tied it to them. Well when that cable needs replaced it's a bitch to use it to pull thru the new cable. Lucky I didn't use more then 2 zip ties and more importantly was able to reach under the carpet and break them. Also added a strap to help keep the cutout from rotating down.
The angle of the photo makes it look lower than it really is.

I really need to get my cutout put in

Nice dump! I wish I could fit a turn down on my cutout but it's really tight with a 4" cutout.

Install it parallel to the ground with just a slight downward twist. If you have to, flatten the bottom just a touch for clearance as that will not make a lick of difference in performance.
