[POMONAMISSEL]

I'm confused. Who's thread is this?

 

[POMONAMISSEL]

[Road Rat]

No need to stop on account of me, yours is new too. Always interesting to see what others are doing.

i just don't need complainers . my project is an a body of sorts its an austin a40 coupe . gasser style . its still in the works . gathering you know of these old hotrod parts can run you around . and of course the early hemi stuff and american racing magnesium rims . but an austin a40 with a donovan hemi blown is at the top of my list of cool rides . and yes it will be a street/strip car , just like the gassers of yes'r year .

i just started my first alum hemi , i bought a donovan wet 417 block that had never been scatter in , and i'm working a deal for a bullet steel crank for , now heads . and of course all those parts to make my 1500 hp motor .

That chuck of bling looks like it's lacking some cooling holes!!

 

[POMONAMISSEL]

nope there here water goes in the sides and out the heads . and my adam's nascar pump put the water in through the sides of the block . so i can maintain big coolant track psi , as must as i can get to 50 psi to keep the cylinders from boiling off the coolant . i should not say coolant it water .

I think you have the fixin's for a great project. And the OP said go for it! I know I'll be paying attention.

i'm hoping for that new intake i'm doing will run the charge through inner coolers then back to the intake ports , that will be dry of fuel . i'll inject the fuel into the intake runners . and i'm still debating type of fuel gas vs e85 , it could be a gasser on e85 and it would run cooler than gas . and more c/r as well . pistons i got with the block n sleeves are meth or alky c/r , could be made to work with e85 .

i just left my bud butches shop , were he was putting the finishing touches on a pair of ported stainless steel valved 354 hemi heads , 60 hours in the porting n bleeding . i ask him if he was wanting to do more , i have three pairs that could use his handy work , he just started to LOL . guess not . lol . here is a pic of a 392 he built with his home made intake n carb setup . and a pic of his flathead home made intake n carbs for an early digger he hand built as well .
