My heart just sank reading that. It's your car my friend but changing the seats? Nooooooo.... time to start a new project.

I would give my blessing on an LS7 with a Kinsler FI cross ram intake manifold though.

I'll look for it when I get back next week. I hope you can wait that long.

Peace out. Joy to the world.

Randy, I know we've never met before, but you got me in the background on this pic.


I'm the short guy with the gray hat just above the orange Chevelle's passenger side visor looking down.

As for the V10, I'd do a Daytona or Superbird clone

I want to say that GM did a mule 'Vette with either a V-10 or maybe a V-12.

They just cut it and inserted the needed 4.4" or 8.8" between the door and the back of the front wheel opening and you had to really look at it to tell it was stretched..

I want to say they used a "Falconer" SB type engine???

This was years ago.....
