    Show Your Big Block A body!

    A factory 4 speed car we made a racer out of it. Ran high 12's on an 80,000 mile stock motor with only headers and a 4.10 Gear. Eventually swapped in 440 and 727 for brackets and ran pretty easy 10.70s [/IMG] [/IMG]

    440 cam choice?

Hooker fenderwell headrs (used to be # 5206) will work with the 4 speed, bur it means cutting your fenderwelss...

    Fenderwell's, or under chassi

    I've had both and there is no comparison for ease of maintenance with fenderwells. I understand folks liking the "clean" look, but I like the "gasser" look of the fenderwell headers. Had 'em on several cars, but you just GOTTA have 'em on A body big blocks! Joe
