Nice! Any plans for it or just gonna drive the wheels off?

Little update, I tore the automatic out of the car and have been working on the 4 speed swap, all I have to do is cut and fix the bellhousing ballstud bracket to get the z bar straight. Gear banging videos coming soon!!!

well since getting the motor in and running I wiped a lobe on the 590 cam. so I switched to a 557 cam, put in a firecore distributor, switched to .039 felpro head gaskets making it 10.4:1, painted the car, and have been out driving. most say that's too much compression for pump gas and iron...

Just read back over this, and you must be a three wheeler guy. A friend of mine just got a 250r 3 Wheeler with an esr110 big bore kit, runs on 100 octane VP fuel. That is a sketchy ride for sure!!!!. Better have a steel set of nuts to rip that on a trail lol

I'll have to gather some pics up, but I fixed the water pump leak with a mezeir electric pump, installed a permacool 16" electric fan. I also got a new set of front wheels and tires, and rear wheels with 255 drag radials. Took out the 741 case with 3.91 gears and put in a 489 case with 4.56...

The fender well headers make starter installs noooooooooooo easy. As well as access to the plugs

Well parts got here, new mini starter is in and wired up, plug wires cut and installed, fuel pump wired in, new pre bent transmission lines installed with a trans cooler. now I'm just working on getting a bracket made up for my new alternator

I got my motor and trans in, and installed the new champion radiator, I still have to fab up a bracket for the alternator I picked up yesterday, going to use a delco 7127 63amp 1 wire. Also have a big box of parts coming from summit to get this thing broken in
