YW
BTW, a few pics of the Bmer going, for a not very effective to race, from a Coan TH400 Race Trans w/ Ballon plated 3500 custon 10" verter to a Tremec TKO600 5spd manual Trans, some parts used to complete said conversion, and a shot of the Ford 9" axle w/ Strange Alum center section on Mopar/Mancini/Southside Machine Super Stock Leaf suspension w/ Adjustable pre-Load Links. The Mopar set-up is actually FOR a 68 A-Body Hemi Cuda Race Car. The axle also includes Moser 31 spline axles, Richmond 3.50-1 gear and Wilwood 13" dual piston caliper Disc brakes. Also a Shot of some of the parts incorporated into the lil 464 Cube 70 Stage 1 455 Buick engine that now rests in the car. Tho i CALL this the Bmer's peanut mtr its actually gone faster than either a 523 or a 535 Stage 2 Based engine that i have had in the car and has lasted 4 times as long as both of those put together. Mainley because both of the strokers were actually more engine than i could do much effectively with in the car with the small tires, and while im able to spray a total of 300bhp in 2 stages into the peanut mtr, any attempt to spray either of the strokers resulted in even SLOWER ET's than on mtr, and THAT was when i was still runnin the 464 w/ stock exhaust manifolds to avoid havein to craft both a Stage 1 AND a Stage 2 set of headers. Stage 1 and Stage 2 455 Buick exhaust do NOT INTERCHANGE.
The block hugger shorty headers on the wall are the Stage 1 i bought for the car AFTER the demise of the 535 Stroker when the 464 again found its way under the Hood of the car. The Cowl lift off app for the Hood was a conversion that occured during the installation of the 1 Stroker mtr. Previous pics of the car are when it had the stock, stock rearward opening Hood and the lil 464 had a Old Offy B4B intake and an 850 CFM annular discharge Holley Carb atop a 2 stage Cheater wet plate nitrous system.
As the Stage 1 mtr is in the car presently it uses the KB/TA WildKat Kool Runner Dominator Intake with 2 Stage Dominator Big Shot Wet Nitrous plate and 1050 Holey Dominator carb that was the induction for the 2 Stroker engines. while Stage 1 and Stage 2 exhaust will NOT interchange, the intakes will.
Tho all engines in the car have used a stock GM dist housing w/ GM Heavy duty Bronze breaker, all other ignition components have always been MSD 7AL3 w/Blaster 3 coil
Although i believe this is among the most unique Street and Strip combinations to come down the pike, It ain't NO LIMIT RAD, n THAS a fact!!!
