Oh well that's great!
Okay. It's a 70 Fastback I bought a few years ago. When I bought it, I loved it except someone really DID not know how to build and engine. It had a 302 with an Edelbrock Torquer Manifold, Flat top pistons, an Erson Hi-Flo? cam, stock stall, C4, Stock 2.73 or less gearing, stock heads, headers, 650 carb with problems. it had WAY too much lift and not enough compression and if was degreed wrong too. Well anyways as I'm tearing it down here I found out the hard and sorry way, that it was all cosmetically put together. It has a beautiful paint job, but underneath it all it's a molested, overrodded poor wore out car. I'm redoing it the right way rebuilding the chassis and doing the shock tower work and all that. It's not really all that bad, someone did have a LITTLE respect for it, but. But it looks like a dumass 16 year old kid put it together.
Well I'm doing the motor and interior right now. The motor is going to be a 351 Cleveland with DOAE Closed Chamber 4V heads, ported, with Parker port stufferes, stainless valves, roller rockers, roller lifters, custom grind cam, Funnelweb intake, Speed Demon 750 carb, Flat top pistons... you probably don't want the details. It's goign to be about 488 FWHP. I'm eargerly building it. And let's just say I can't keep the polish on my nails any more!!! LOL if I ever had any :)
It's going to have a Tremec TR-3550 and that will be FUN.
Well I have a lot of work to do before racing begins. If if you ladies need anything give me a holler!
