Ok so the next step is I’m going to rebuild the engine and see if I can get this thing to go faster I’m not doing a stoker or anything like that no MSD box I’m going old school factory parts I will balance and blueprint but no aftermarket carburetor or intake let’s see what a stock appearing car can do.

Edelbrock dp4b, hooker headers, a 440 avs, or a holley 3310, and can’t remember the cam suggestion is what the old direct connection book says

For a distributor I use Mallory, had a unilite on my car, it crapped out and went with my spare trusty trunk dual point. Eventually I might put factory electronic ignition, but for now my points works.

The edelbrock dp4b comes up every now and then. If I’m not mistaken the performer took its place. I was in the same boat with my gtx, I wanted the ch4b, or the Weiand action plus, couldn’t find either cheap, found a good deal on the performer, it is what it is sometimes.
 
Well it’s the one year anniversary for the time machine that was fast !

Getting ready to pull the engine and do a rebuild this winter balance and blueprint new secret cam from Mr. Six pack racing . I’m thinking of using 915 heads , I just pick up a pair and I have a 67 Carter afb from a real GTX ! I want to stay old school and stock appearing with old stock NOS parts .
 
Nice I sell lifters new old stock if you need some for your build , my 383 is smoking and has a lifter tic that comes and goes 58000 miles and sat for forty years it's time ..
 
I got the block back from the machine shop I had it decked and bored the deck was off about 7 thousands from end to end . Everything is going to be checked the plan is to build a vintage 67 spec super stock class car and by vintage 67 I’m mean only using parts / casting numbers that would have available and legal and if at all possible.It will be tuff and I may have to use a few things that are from another time period . One of the main reasons I’m choosing 1967 is the tires !! I have brand new 1967 spec 7x29 super stock legal 7” cheater slicks which fit perfectly in the wheel wells of the Time Machine….
 
I can’t wait to try these tires they are made for a new super stock class , and they should fit nice inside the 66 b body wheel well plus these guys are sticky like glue ;)
