got a few pics to share of the engine and what has been done this weekend. i like how the hilborn stacks just peek over hood but may have wanted 1/2 more...still have to finish the hole in hood and im going to run a 5 1/16 rod around opening and the blend it in to give the hood opening some style..
Welcome to the world of constant flow injection. That was quite a change you made in two months. With the Hilborn setup, you will definitely be needed that magneto now. You car sure has made big strides since you started working on it. Sooooo, ready for the CHRR this year?
old 55 gassers are cool. i had the original magnum speed shop car, pics are on my profile. it was way to far gone to fix. i would like to build a 55 though, 2 door post after my 65 ss is done. cool project man. cant wait to see it when its done.
...really coming along fine-keep up the great work !!!! cannot wait to see a video of it running someday !!!
Nice progress....I agree...just a lil more height on the stacks through the hood.........but lookin great
another engine pic, Im going to still run my red scoop so the height of stacks works where they are. was a tough choice
got a few things done this weekend, Got my scoop roughed in and made a smooth firewall to cover the all the openings , just needs a little finishing and puddy and paint.
thanks for the good comments, As stated before it is alot of work and im glad people are interested in the build. IM aiming to have this driving by july.
gotta love tax return....got poop load of parts for the 55....and my motor is off for machine work....wooohoo
