I didn't know they sold these at Bed Bath and Beyond :lol:

Is that a flexplate? Was he going to run an auto behind that? Big stall converter in that bad boy. I like the tri Ys.

Don't make me give you the full specs on my 2600psi pressure washer. :lol:

Yeah he told me he was gonna run this motor in a tri 5 but later when I asked about the headers said he test fit them in a 68 Camaro... and he didn't know yet I had a 68.

Those stainless Sb2 tri Y's are all over ebay as you know for 300-600+ bucks, but knowing this fit was worth the $500 extra I figured.

Nice score. :cool: Are you ever going to get that subframe home and start test fiting this stuff?

I wish I could score a set of stainless headers for that price. My headers will be a little harder to find second hand. :rofl: :rofl:

:cheers:

Subframe is in our possession now. :woot:

Working with Jake on exchanging & upgrading some parts as this particular kit is a couple years old and he has made some enhancements since then. But those are top secret of course. :D

there goes the neighborhood....you have time now, don't kill yourself.

On the dyno it must smell like an OUSCI invite waitin' to happen. :unibrow:

Then he'd have to pass tech -- and I know a couple of "those guys".....:unibrow:

How the worm has turned...


:lol:

That's a fine collection of parts right there Dave. Congrats on your progress. Should be a screamer. :thumbsup:

Everything looks absolutely killer!

Upgrades lemme guess, polyurethane control arm bushings??

Only sissies run corvette control arms...:lol: :cheers:

Obviously Flash is going to still need more of his kinda parts...sometimes its just a matter of having the right guys in the wedding...

Great! Then he'd have two of them!


:rofl:

Now wouldn't that be nice. Got any pull for me? :unibrow:

YOU of all people must have some pull. :unibrow:

I don't recall discussing it. But it is a long working list and Jake is gonna send me a list here soon to start with.

No comment. :lol:

This is not untrue. :D

Surprised that took 119 minutes. You guys are usually quicker. :lol:

Very impressive Dave. Its going to be a new car.

Very cool stuff Dave, congrats on the new motor and SF. :thumbsup:

That looks awesome Dave!
I can't wait to see it come together.
Shane

Wow is this car changing for the better! Dave I may have missed it but what are you running for the rear setup? Jakes also? So whats the time frame to get it up and running now? This year??? :cheers:

If you can't drive, build a race car.

The alley-oop

Looks Great dave, but you need mor distributor....

Matt

LOL! So we now know why your 69 is being sold! to build a race car! :D

Yes, Jake's torque arm.

Timeframe? Shooting for Q1 2013. Wedding and house take priority for the rest of 2012. :willy:

Nice... I need A distributor before I can get MOR. :D

But what do you build if you can drive? I know... a faster 68 Camaro. :lol:

Hell, I may very well be slower in this new rendition. But probably not. :D

Bingo. That was an easy one wasn't it. :unibrow:

You lied to me ...You told me it was 438 Cu In :mad:

Tell Lily I want to be an usher in your wedding.

I believe I sandbagged and said 430. :woot:

:lol:

That's gona cost you!! Everything looks great Congrats

PS racers build "race cars" :unibrow:

lucky for you I know a guy.

:cheers:

This coming from the guy that would get smoked by my Grandma. :unibrow:

Yea now that they know you are building a car the invite should be in the mail that's the way it works for everybody right ? :_paranoid

:cheers:

It's tough to make a 1st gen stand out these days for the big show... we're working on it and I'd be lying if I said didn't want an invite. :thumbsup:

...and if received would automatically renew your lat-g man card another 5 years.


:D

Yeah it must be tough; so what's your angle, it has ford stripes, or everything on your car is a hand-me-down? :rofl: :cheers:

yeah... But some of those hand-me-downs have OUSCI experience... :unibrow:

...so there will be no 'Braking Bad(ly). :D

This is true! And be it known that I have a lot of DGs parts earmarked for when he eventually goes for the next round of upgrades...or is it too soon to say BMF2? :unibrow:

Those are both pretty good reasons . I love me some hand me downs. Susan and I buy almost everything these days at the flea markets. We're addicted. :D

Pedigree, baby! :thumbsup:

Is that related to Breaking Benjamin? :captain:

Man I hope I am getting toward the end of the upgrades with this phase... what's left? Tube chassis and acid dipped full fiberglass shell? :willy:

Maybe those side windows you posted in Rupp's thread? :unibrow:
