The time has come. Engine is going to a builder next weekend if nothing pops up. Should have it back sometime in January. It's finally happening!

It'll happen some day, I'm sure... I'd feel worse if it were sitting outside or something, but it's safe in a garage at least. I will say while my friend and I were messing with it, a Cardinal showed...

Did these come in E60-15? Not that it matters, since I won't run 50 year old tires, but the vision I have for my car is E60s in the front, L60s in the back. If they ever repop these, I'm in trouble.

Private investigators?

Apologies if this isn't the right place for this, but, Dad will be turning 55 in May. I think it'd be really cool to surprise him and reconnect him with the '73 Firebird he had when I was born....

I would definitely not ever take it back to stock. The car has more history the way it sits now, I think. And, I'd run the slots full time but that's because Magnum 500s don't really do much for me...

I can't tell you which one to get, but I can tell you to avoid the Innova ones at Harbor Freight. I tried two of the damn things and neither one worked, right out of the box with brand new batteries.

To my understanding, the owners' plan was to get it back in shape and sell it off. So it's a good chance the track isn't going anywhere. I sure hope not- I want to run my car down it at least one...

It definitely seems to be an odd tire to reproduce. Unless they're trying to throw everyone off the trail. You'd think they'd go with Formula 1 Super Stocks or some other popular tire.

Haven't touched it since pulling the motor. My cheapo HF engine stand doesn't work with the 454- the holes don't line up right and I really don't trust it to hold this thing up.

Thanks for the info! It's a 19 or 19.5 inch opening if I measured it right.

Tags are long gone.

Also, is this the right fan for a big block car? It's 7 blades but to my uninformed eye they look awful short. Maybe smaller= faster, I don't know.
