    Just pulled the 390 out of my 64 to rebuild so the only photos I could post is of a disassembled FE with Cal Custom finned valve covers & a Mooneyes finned air cleaner.

  8. Mine is freshly rebuilt with lots of nice detail, but it is stock. Black and gold with the original tower hose clamps and a glass fuel filter and all that jazz. I would love to find an intake that ran a 3-bolt carb, but all the tripowers ran the holley 2-barrels, not my fave for asthetics. Barry Grant just came out with the six shooter that has "traditional" styling, but it's expensive! Aside from valve covers and intake, any ideas? Should I leave the expansion tank black, or chrome it?

  11. Here you go: The gold colored coupe with the BB Dodge and crossram sits in a garage here in town, the 6x2 FE and front draft blown/Eelco twin headed engines are my freind Shauns (yes, he built everything on that blown flattie, also built the intake on that FE), the black and white photos are my friend Logans, the colored photo flattie is my brother's 40 P/U, and the banger and Y block are mine. Thats me sprinkling magin fairy dust on the Y block ;)
