Re: sticking neck out/poor man's tub & narrow
Thank you fellas. I feel the car has much more left in it, but its began smoking. I wanted to spray it at the track to get a 6 sec pass but a few friends talked me into waiting. I'm going to tear the motor down after i finish another project i'm working on.

Here is where the panhard bar mount had to get made. I put 2 holes in the mount to be able to raise or lower the bar/some adjustability.

Recently did a switch to a mild 10.2:1 big block. Curious to see how this 10-bolt holds up, lol.
