finished the motor up today....and re-installed the front clip


she's starting to look like a car again.


Just need to finish plumbing the fuel system, and reinstall the cooling system and she is ready to crank. Need to order and install the ABS delete kit and the car will be ready to race.

The intake manifold is a ported Edelbrock Vic-E for a Gen1 SBC. The heads were drilled and tapped to accept the SBC bolt pattern. The elbow is a custom fabricated piece from 860 Performance. We build them to order, pricing starts at $300 for one built for NA use, the ones for boosted applications start at $375. They use a thicker gauge material to handle as much boost as you can throw at them.

Your baby looks a lot like my baby, under the hood anyways. Although mine does not have the SBC intake. Are those Canton covers? They are a spitting image of mine, the welds are beautiful on them just like on mine, lol.

I wish I could make the LTx shootout... but who knows? If I make some more progress forward I may very well be rolling in the gate come April..
