Nice choice on the engine, although I am not quite sure about the "mailbox" on top. I would like to see some more updated when you get them. I am building a '31 right now.
The mailbox goes with the logstyle intake. It is reminiscent of the old FED days. Actually it was a paper box by choice...
Don't really care for the intake or the "air cleaner" ... but its ur car as long as you're happy with it
the air box is a mock up from the guy who built the scorpion in 1956 ,bobby langley. i saw a copy of his dragster at the garlits museum and then i found out he lives 20 miles from me so i went to see him. he liked it and showed me how he made his in 1955. the trans is a switch pitch turbo 400. at a flick of a switch it goes from 1800 rpm to 2800 rpm. i may go with the frog mouth air cleaners.he box is out of cardboard for mock up. i didnt want to waste time to find out i didnt like it.its going in a 32 chevy 5 window coupe. chopped 4 inches. channeld 6 inches and the frame is zd 16 inches. its low to the ground.
