Here's what I'm working on. I've owned the car since '85 and since then it's gone through several stages from weekend toy to daily driver. It's been sitting in limbo since '96 when I bought my house. Got married and I guess life took over for a little while. Two years ago I blew the dust off of it and went back to work. Should be running once again real soon.
A bit about it:
'65 Satellite
440 - forged crank - ly rods - 9.6:1 CR
Speed pro six pack pistons
Home ported 906's
Comp XS268 solid cam and lifters
440Source roller rocker setup
Edelbrock Performer manifold
850 Thermoquad built by DemonSizzler
Cheap BlackJack headers - 1-3/4" pri - 3" collectors
727 w/stock replacement converter (for now)
Dana 60 w/3.54:1 gears
10" manual drum brakes all around (gotta go)
Just building it as a strong running cruiser as we have no track here on Long Island to really enjoy these things for what they are. If I had to take a guess I would say it'll be a low 13 second car.
