Hot Rods 409 Sunset

Just a photo..because my rod is finished

 

Looks good but just remember that they're never finished!

 

I'd like to see the sunny side. Tim

 

Me too.^^^^^^

 

Love it. I have a 409 6x2 manifold and was thinking of building a 409 for the 34. Where did you get you linkage? Any other tips?

 

Very cool!

 

I Love it. as a matter of fact it looks familiar.

 

Very nice!

 

Very cool X 2!!!

 

another 409 ride

 

SHE S REAL FINE MY 409 I WOULD LOVE TO GET MY HANDS ON ONE

 

I think these w motors dress up every bit as good as a flattie. Love this one.

 

Looks very nice, W-engines are so cool and great with some dress-up parts.

 

Nice work!

 

Question - were 409 powered Chevies available Australia? I know GM cars were a lot different 'down under'.

 

themoose- you are right that they are never finished. I figure the only time they are finished is when you sell it or DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Try Dicks Hotrod Parts for linkage,he has a good name here.If your using Holley 94's they have a group here with good info.
I had an annoying oil leak,looking like rear main seal.Turned out to be,distributor bottoming out and not sealing tight on 6x2 manifold.Had to run engine at 2500 rpm for about 5 mins till it started weeping out and running down back of the block.Fixed with a thin spacer.
Good luck with your build.

 

"Dubya31" that is a beautiful engine bay you have there,checked out your album and your tudor is cool as,well done.

 

Bubbletop is my favourite Chev, all time.

 

Norman Beechey raced a 409 4 door here on our circuit racing back in the day,but i think it was a US import,so i don't think we had any?
