Thank you fellas. It's 350 block 4 bolt main .030 steel crank, H beam rods. Picked up Denso mini alternator, gives me some much needed room while running front motor plate.

You can't tell to well from this picture, but this is the set up on a friend of mines 65, with a B & M blower. I don't think he has PS though. I don't know if I have any other pictures of his engine, but I'll look a little later today.

I'll probably be talking to him yoday or tomorrow, and I'll see if I can get more info.

his accessories are built to handle high rpm not the lookalike stuff on speedway or summit. Doing up something wiht a midplate should be easy for him. One day Ill have him help out fabbing a billet bracket and a polished denso smog pump just for kicks.

I notice he welded 90 degree on the radiator. I wonder how he fills it? I do not see cap. pics like this are a great help. Gives me different ideas.
Thank you.

The radiator fill is on the other side. The blower pulley/Gilmore belt are blocking the view of it.

I don't believe he modified the radiator. The car is a 65, but he used an aluminum 66-68 big block Corvette radiator from Griffin. The 66-68 Corvette big block radiators come stock with that 90 degree outlet. This car was built over 20 years ago, before DeWitts was making their Direct-Fit replacement radiators, or it would have had a DeWitt in it.
