    Thanks for the pics! I think it has potential.....
    Secret?? Nope, no secret.. same old deal, save up as many pennies as possible and make the most bang for the buck! Usual hot rodder stuff right? The intake was available with dual or single quads. I haven't found a top plate for a single so I just may have to make one. I've also been considering swapping out the fours for dueces and see what it'll do?

    A friend ran a dual quads once, it was okay but I swear my single quad made more power and faster... we'll see what happens.. I'm pretty sure Don, Itoldyouso, also ran dual quads, but I'm not sure he was going to keep them.

    Potential? Sure! Just need to make up my mind and do a 331 or 347!

    Ok, so here's the source of my confusion.....maybe I missed a post or something but I'm confused about where you're going to put this engine... Is it for your '34? cause I thought you were happy with the engine you have in there.

    So I keep referring to a "secret" because I was wondering if you had secretly picked up a '70 Maverick or a '63 Falcon or something to drop this baby in...

    So please pull the wool from my eyes or the cotton from my ears so I can stop making these dumbass remarks about your new engine.....

    They're already on order! And like I tell my wife, " I do not need a reason, so don't try and analyze it!"
