Yes sir the engine is done............... just need to put new valve springs on it, and have the valve job looked over. Motor only has 75 passes on it tops since I built it in 2002. C-head 557, cylinder heads just cleaned up and short turn layed back, with the single carb (1250) and the C-4 with a 4200 10" converter, whenever the car would halfway hook @ 3906lbs with driver it ran 9.60 flat @ 144 with a 1.40-1.45 60 foot. This car should be a good 600-700 lighter. Should be interesting.......

Bad 62

Travis look great Ive got a 62 just like it just wondering did you narrow the rear or did you get those tires on there with the stock rear end length and frame man I wish mine looked that good. I just finished a 472 to put in mine and just trying to get ideals looks like you got your stuff together.

Been working on the car after making it back from the bash. Decided to do the swing out bars for the first year or 2 then upgrade once I get this clutch deal sorted out. Welded the swing out in both sides , also over the last few weeks got the anti-roll installed.
