Lateral G-friends--thanks for all the kind words. My car does not compare to many of yours, but thanks again.
I will send some more pics of the undercarriage soon. Show off some of DSE products with tubulars a-arms, frame connectors, and their SS fuel tank.

Car looks awsome DSE has some Killer products! My dad and i painted their display car they are a great bunch! :thumbsup:

We have been very happy with the DSE line and how everything seems to be well thought out/engineered and fits without much modifications. You get what you pay for. And the service you get from these guys is second to none. Kyle really understands this industry. That is always a good thing.

Yes, it does. Beautiful car. Never sell that beast short. You and your car belong here.

I love that car. I love the big block. Very clean.

A couple of questions:

1) Where did the valve covers come from? What brand?
2) How long have you been putting it together?
3) What kind of tires are you running?

BeCool68 07-18-2006 04:06 PM

Tracy--

Tracy, thanks--yep once you have had a big block hard to go back. What I like about this "beast" is we have all this power (760 HP)and still idles around 700rpm with the AC on. And the cool thing about is, even in this hot Memphis weather engine never gets above 210 degrees--thanks to BECool.

1. Valve Covers--not sure who makes them. My engine builder Cropper Racing Engines in Flemingsburg KY got them for me for around $150. Their number is 606-849-2506. Probably made in China Moroso look-alikes. But they work.
2. I bought this car going on 2 years ago in S. CA fro the original owner--very nice lady. Real clean 6 cylinder 3 speed on the column, car. Took 6 months to build with a frame-off restoration or I guess a front uni-body off restoration. My builder was Ronnie Geeslin in Senatobia MS with Ronnie's Hot Rods. His number is 662-301-2006--this guy's work is one of the best I have ever seen. Well as you know they are never done. I am looking at possible transmission swap with overdrive maybe a TKO 500--with internal shift. Nothing wrong with this Richmond very happy but to have over-drive would be nice. I may even look at the 4 link from DSE. Always something but I guess that whats so fun about this stuff maybe fuel injection with FAST.
3. The tires are BF Goodrich KD's 315's in the rear and 245's up front on 17" Budnik wheels. I am happy with how they hold.
