Just adding to the latest motor pics...

These pictures are a few years old, but since a few of you are posting the engine photos, I felt like adding mine too.

Some of these were taken before I put the smooth billet lid on the Super Ram... This one was just before I cleaned up the sealer.

I am putting a stock 350 in the Black car and the polished TPI out of my car will go on that. I am just rebuilding it to make a profit, not building anything real fast.


As for the system, it is pretty good, not finished, but good.

Ok, I have a few questions....

1. Did you build your motor yourself? If so, what's in it?

2. What brand headers are those?

3. Will a Hotchkis brace fit on a carbureted car? (Would there be a problem clearing the air breather?)

Thanks-Nice motor BTW.

83.. I had the engine built, but helped in the assembly. It is a 350, 30 overbore,steel crank, Balanced, blah-blah. Sportsman 11 heads with heavy porting, Accel intake.... on and on. Enough to run 11.97 @ 120 on a G-tech.. The headers are Edelbrocks, and the strut bar would most likely not work with a carb. Edelbrock makes one for carbs, I would look into them.

LT4 Hot cam.... As for the rear brakes, they used to be drum, now it has the PBR disc brakes... Nothing in the drivetrain has been left alone, every piece has been upgraded except for the torque arm, which will be replaced next month.

Until I get the new ones... this is how it sets in the garage. I have only put 37 miles on it since March, so rims are no big deal right now....

I have a set of original Firehawk wheels that I need to go pick up. They will be for racing, then for when the car gets shown at car shows, I am getting a set of ??? wheels. I don't want to say which ones yet, I hope to post a picture of it when it is done and knock peoples socks off! The rims I have planned should definately do the job!! I hope to have it complete by the end of Febuary, supercharger and all....

Damn your car is gonna kick a$$, although I don't really like the firehawk wheels that much, they just seem to plain to me, but hey whatever floats your boat, at least they are only for racing.

The blanket is over the back because when the garage door goes up, the water from it raining, drips on the car.

The intake is an Accel SuperRam, I have polished it and added the smooth billet lid on top. The throttle body is a Holley 58mm , Holley injectors, factory fuel rails, BBK adjustable fuel pressure regulator, Edelbrock base.....The base/runners/and the plenum box are all ported, I think that is it. If that is not the info needed, let me know. I will be happy to give any answers.
