Sweet Ride Man. What kind of cam is in it, will it be a bit lumpy?
How about compression, nothing like a bit of compression and a lumpy idle to let everyone know whats under the hood.

that's a cool truck,i used to work at a bodyshop in altona.while i was there i helped the owners son install a 502 , later i painted the truck same color as yours, you may have seen it before,it has been at gimly and ran a best of 12.05. the only difference that i can see between yours and his is that his has a back window that wraps around ..i forget what that is called....anyway looks good!!:humbs:

:thnx:
Its called a wrap around window or big back window which ever you like. Some people think that is better. But I prefer the smaller. I have a big block for it but that will be later. After the brakes and front end are updated.

he had installed a jimmy frame under it. it was good for the disk brakes and all ,but it sure handle like crap at high speeds. if i had my way we would have put a camaro front clip and dropped her a dew inches to get some dowm force happening. all that work swappin frames and it still handles like a truck.what a waste:badpc:
