Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

The car would look good with yellow CHEVY stripes on it.

Sorry if I missed it somewhere, but do we know what the new motor is going to be?

Haha - go easy on Justin guys... he is the guy who sold me this beast of a car and got me started with a great foundation.

You didn't miss anything Justin -- I haven't let the cat out of the bag yet -- details still being finalized and parts accumulated.

Well after a successful RTTC for me personally and the car, we are even happier and shocked at just how bad the motor was effed up on day 2... we knew it wasn't good but the final score was this:

4 broken pistons
3 bent valves

I'll just let these pictures do the rest of the talking.









The block is actually in decent shape and was only bored .020 over so it's good life left for someone, just not me. Will be figuring out what parts are for sale and what might be reused (if any).

I'll just say I don't plan on being "underpowered" with this next motor.
