My "Late Life Crisis"!
It's a long story, over 2 years in the "making", but I'll be filling in the details when I figure out how to upload the pics, with Bruce's help!!
For now, here's the end result........... https://youtu.be/PbL_6JxyVcI |
I will call you tonight, Joe :)

No rush Bruce!! Didn't mean to force the issue!!:frown:

Yup, sounds just like a stock 300hp 350 to me :naughty:

So, a little over 2 years ago, it seemed like the existing engine was growing tired, kinda like me!! I thought it would be neat to build a completely different engine, and keep the numbers matching one on a stand. I approached my local guy and had only 3 requests, that it had 500 horsepower, build it like it's your own and no hurry. The no hurry, in my mind, meant that in about 6-8 months I'd have a new motor.
It actually took over 2 years, but in those years I was able to address a lot of other stuff that needed attention. One guy that got me thinking of even doing any of this was Wayne Scraba. When he did his Nova, he mentioned that everything he was doing was reversible. I said to myself, hey, I can do that!! Where to start.....here was where the car would sit for those 2+ years.

(Whoops, I guess the video already showed you that!!) Attachment 291874 |
