It's like a different car on the bottle. --Neil http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...86_27_full.jpg |
oh, a big block? not what I thought it was.. interesting... gold, very nice color for that. It's very clean, looks sharp. Those are pretty good results, about what you were expecting? |

Pontiac used a gold color didn't they? |
I believe gold was Olds. (May be wrong, though. . .) |
I think you're right. Pontiac was more of a blue/green. |
Some of the early olds engines were gold. Buicks were red. Chevys were orange. Cadillac were navy blue. Pontiacs were a very light blue. |
the olds 442`s with a 455 were light blue but all the rest were gold, nice to see another bbc in a third gen, good luck with it, sounds like a nice driver! |
Oldsmobile used about 3 different shades of gold/bronze over the years. When I touched up the motor, the early color from the 1950's was the closest match to what the original builder used. |
Very nice, does it fit under the factory hood? It looks low enough that it could. BTW - Olds used gold, Pontiac used a green/blue color, Buick used red, and Chevy used orange. I though for a minute you just overbored a 425 Olds and dropped it in, untill I actually looked at the motor. :lol: |

That Torker has got to be holding you back. A cowl and a Victor Jr. or even Performer RPM would probably pick you up 30-40 HP. |

Clean looking install. Not bad #'s at all... track #'s are alot better though! *Pontiac was light blue, not gold. I think Olds was gold... |
you dont need a cowl hood with a vic jr intake FYI.. |
very nice numbers, i thought they would have been alittle higher though. |

Numbers are great but I have to admit I expected alot more torque from a 427 at the rear wheels but either way that car sounds fun. |

On a big block? No way the #2904 Victor Jr. intake would fit under my stock hood. It has a 5.9" carb pad height versus the 3.05-4.6" angled pad height on the Torker. |

Well then the VIC Jr label and the raised plenum along with the big runners must be completely mislabled on my car.. Hmm... Do I need to take pictures to prove it? And also, can I get some $$ after proving it? |
Ill see if I cant get some pictures. But yes, this is a stock hood, along with a NOS plate undernite my carb. |
