Jorge (Bundell), Dude! you are so right, those would definitely set off that little '65. Hell, The $4000 I'd save by not having to buy wheels would probably cover the majority of the cost of the bondo that Frankenstein is going to need.


GW, I suppose I'm like you in that I don't discriminate against Fords of Chevys. Never really understood people who were diehards. All my sh** seems to break just the same. In fact if my Camaro and Mustang are both broken at the same time, I might look for '91 Miata like Jason just mentioned.

Skip, you should hear this thing in person. think of that KR video, except real, and spectacular. I said I wasn't going to modify it, but there is an intake that makes the supercharger whine more prominent. I think I need one :_paranoid

Thanks

No worries. I haven't forgotten what it is:lol: The carpet is Mercedes' charcoal grey (or whatever their second darkest color was at the time) that my interior guy made in three pieces. Any interior shop should be able to cut a carpet like this for you car for a reasonable price.

I finally got some new parts for my engine this week. Now I'm just playing the same game as Dave, trying to round up the rest of what I need. Rupp and I had a little bit of an oversight picking out parts, and forgot that the LS7 heads needed a bigger bore than what the factory LS3 block provided. Unfortunately for my wallet, my LS7 manifold was already on the way from England when I found this out, so the whole LS3 416 kinda went out the window in favor of something big enough to fit the manifold. The engine block went off to Steve Demerjian of Race Engine Development. It is going to get the dry sleeve treatment this time around. I'm going to throw in the old 4.125" crank paired up with some new 4.155" pistons for something in range of 447ish cubes. This displacement coupled with a set of LS7 heads, (which I have yet to pick out, but am considering buying GM ones and sending them off to Richard at WCCH) should really take advantage of the Jenvey manifold.

So, if anyone is looking for a Jeff Davis Precision Metal Craft manifold and some Trick Flow 235 heads, Have I got a deal for you :lol:

Matt, is the precision manifold for an LS3?
