Here Is my Project Finally back on the ground 1986 Iroc with 468 BBC



Finally got it mostly back together. I have radiator hose, Both Dipsticks, Altimator Belt, Wire up fuel pump and electric fan, and hook up the shifter cable add trans fluid. I also need to get a cowl scoop. looking for either a 3 or 4 inch. Once that is on I will reshoot the hood Front bumper, drivers fender and then finish the strips on the front. alittle about the car. right now it has a 486 that is right around 600 hp. behind that it has a stock 700r4 I know won't last long. and the rear is a stock rear with 3.42 gears. but today was a mile stone the car is almost complete Minus the few parts i mentioned.

Re: Here Is my Project Finally back on the ground 1986 Iroc with 468 BBC

looks pretty good!!! I kinda like the look of the black hood, lower lip and head light area...lol. Should look pretty sharp once you have the cowl scoop on and everything painted. now with a 486 under the hood does the front end sit any lower? with a 600hp big block on a t-top car do you have sfc yet? again look real good so far!!

car sits the same height as with the 305 tpi that was in it sfc not yet but it does have a 6 point roll bar which stiffened it alittle. I forgot about the sfc i had planned on that.
