    Well,
    After driving the willys around for a summer we decided it needed a lil more umph than the stock 354 was giving. Thus a blown 392 was in order.

    Its an all steel car with a highly boxed and gusseted stock frame under it. Even the front clip is steel. The motor dynoed at just under 650 horse. It runs on 92 octain, and i havent been able to rive it yet, but it will still be a street car. Heres a few before pics for those of us that arent sick of it yet.
