When or if ever I get to redo the Valiant, the vinyl top is going back on as well...but right this time. Vinyl top fan as well.

I agree, however, we should let him know that the front drum has 3 or 4 clutch discs and rear drum has another 3 or 4 and ask him then how it's clutchless and let him figure it out!! Lol Might show up on an "edit" haha!

I agree Geof, it does look like a solid ride and could be fun with right components; however, I bet you're also correct on a rediculously high reserve lol. GEO, you should email him with that question, lol!!

This is what my machinist pushes......he says that Indy's are the WORST and that's coming from a former JEG's prostock engine builder!!

66 4dr Valiant with a 225 Slant Six with a stroker?? And a clutchless 3spd floor shifter, lol At least it sounds like it has at least a 340!! hahahahalolololhahahahaaaa! This person had to have gotten fed a line of $#!t when he bought it, and didn't know any better. lol...

Feb of 2011 so 3 1/2 yrs

I don't think the driver of that Chally knew what the crap he was doing! That was one of the doggiest launches EVER!!

The year was 2000 and I was a Sr in H.S. A kid I knew, a sophomore at the time, had just gotten a 67 chevelle malibu from his parents that was tubbed, 4 link, caged, professionally restored, and a "professionally" built 327 and was braggin on it pretty good. So, one Friday evening I caught him...

haha, now the FBI has a sting operation just down the road waiting for that "human trafficking" arrest, lol.

Okay, correction here. Gears are 3.23's. Coulda swore they were 3.55's. My bad.

HOOOHGF, Wow! That with a 2bbl? The worn out 273 2bbl it replaced would only get 16mpg at best on the highway. That old 650 has smaller primaries than the 2bbl so I'm sure it helps a little.

Oh, sorry, forgot that. 3.23's. I'll have to go look at the tire size. Carb is an old Holley 6210-3 650 spread bore dp. 64prim/87sec. edit. Tires are 215/70R/14

Colorado Springs is at a little over 6000ft above sea level. Pueblo, where the track is, is around 4800 ft above sea level. So the amount of decent over 53 mi = 1200 ft. lol Unless you're being serious....Manual disc brakes up front, 9" drum in back. :)

Decided to drive the Interstate yesterday to the nearest race track just to see if she'd make it with the fresh teen and 904. (had about 900 mi on em) Driving 70-75mph most all the way at 3000-3200rpm. 106mi round trip. On the way back was going uphill. Elevation went from just over 6000ft down...

Wow very cool! Didn't know they existed. So is that considered a c body?

I can take some pics of it in the car. We were in a hurry to get it in as it's a daily driver so no pics were taken. I ended up having to modify the k member a little bit as the pass side was rubbing it. The engine sat down all the way but was sitting too far on the drive side. Marked where it...

Finally got this thing built and it's on the motor and in the car!

Pics.

Finally got the pan rails made. Pics soon

True, I was thinking of an actual pan/box.

Didnt think about seal boxes. That might get messy though with the different intakes, hoods, and carb selection. lol You'd prob have to glue the aluminum quarters to existing steel, unless you're using dezuze fasteners or something.

Just putting some feelers out if there's any interest in aluminum racing and street components like battery boxes, oil pans, valve covers, etc at affordable prices?? Just thinking here.

In these parts, it'd already be donked up on 26's with some dumb paint job.

Haha, that would be friggin hilarious!!

Especially the Ford Blue color. Better be factory correct color for that price. lol

Please let us all know the response!! lol

Prob figures he'll be able to purchase a lot of that with the 15G. lol

LOL haha
