This had a 468 (454 bored .030 over), TH400, Hooker headers and Thrush mufflers. Which, for England, was really radical...

Is that 454 a Mercedes engine?? That must have been smoooothhhh!!
It's a good thing this was a few years ago... those wheels look hauntingly close to the wheels on my previous dailer driver '04 Chevy Impala!!
Neat pics... Closest we've come to England was a visit to Paris last year. We'll make it there someday!

Stephen,
You are insane!
I love to read your threads to see the crazy "poop" that comes up next. I could use some other stuff for my car if you can get it for free!?

Stock stuff for free is not too painful (per say); I gave away a ton of stock stuff last year (some of which I had to buy back ). http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...m_id=53&arch=1
But performance stuff for free (or even cheap) - I would be happy to accept any offers of generosity

Bet you got some funny looks driving that thing around the Island.
Works for me.
