Default More progress pics

The car on its way to Richard Stevens racecars in Gulfport to get the headers modded

CLICK FOR LARGER PIC





IN CAR MOCKUP






Its getting closer

BTW those of you following the progress, the pic from the rear is WITHOUT the 1/4 inch spacers..it will look right(I think) when I get it as low as I want(down right on top of the tire) I am not so concerned now...as it looks closer to what I wanted, as far as rear tire/fender relationship goes.

I thought I read that on the top but couldn't find that intake on their site. Guess I might have to call them

Hedman 1 7/8 headers are not made to work with the A/C in place..I will have A/C..hey its a streetcar after all!!

Yeh we are looking to explore the boundaries of a 23* headed LT1 on pumpgas normally aspirated.



That is the only intake like that on the planet. It is a custom piece.


Yeh the car is coming along now....mini-tub is done, fuel system is in, interior is back in the car, tranny cooler is mounted in RF fender well. Getting closer.

Had to have it notched to fit behind the alternator, it is also being welded and fit with the headers.
