Looking forward to it.

I've been keeping him busy

the blower is sitting on a custom 383 with AFR heads with a
custom blower cam

EM headers

He built the AC delete bracket, and altered the tall valve cover to fit around the alternator.

radiator mounts needed to be altered in order to get the cobra head on the blower.

2:1 ratio steering rack installed before that as well as custom spacers for the shocks so the swaybar links clear.

Brian,


Looking good; however, you lost me on the AC delete. Nothing feels as good as ice cold AC at triple digit speeds...

Just saying.
