Weiand 4bbl
Eddy 500 cfm carb
Hooker headers- 2.5" duals off the collectors Y piped into a single 2.25" Thrush Glasspack 31" OAL,exit out the passenger side before rear tire.
Still deciding on cam...???
Solid lifter swap
Drool tube head cut for 9-1 comp. Light pocket porting/gasket matching/casting flash removal. Back cut stock valves.
HEI ignition Recurved dizzy
4.56 gears with a track lok.

Here are a few pics of the manifold freshly painted.

Removed all of the trim,got most of the passenger door dent out:

Tinted the windows to help with the Tx heat this summer. Painted the rear wheels,ran out of time,will paint the fronts this weekend to match.
