Sooooooo anyone just happen to have a set of aluminum big block chevy heads that are good to go ....with the big chambers ?......and uhm....a complete blower.....or a mini blower....It's too early to ask santa....to late for the easter bunny...

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
 

I like where this is going...
I used an old big block trans cross member on mine, but a fabricated one may be in the future, and yours has a nice design. Keep the pics coming.

Okay so ....The back is going together fast now....moved the batteries to the very back for weight.....fuel tank is in the back...the bags are all set up...shock brackets are good to go ....so here is a look at what we have now

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
 

Nothing but nothing say's loving .....like a 12 bolt....I completly dig that 12 bolt housing.

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
 

Man, your long box looks awesome! Your pro streeter is so bad azz with a big block, and I love the engine set that far back. Keep posting these pics, it's looking great! PS I hope your 12 bolt lives. :lol:

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
 

12 bolt should be just fine, there's guys running low 10's with them on here.

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
 

I wanted to use a 12 bolt because no one does....it's got a spool and axel treatment it's going to be fine.

Man, if I had known 6 months ago that you were looking for a set of aluminum BBC heads.....I sold a killer set of ported Dart 320s w/119cc chambers, 2.50/1.88 Ferrea valves, Comp titanium retainers, and a matching ported Dart 4150 intake. The heads were fresh, the manifold had been ceramic bead tumbled, even came with new guideplates and head studs, everything was ready to go. It was set up for a 496 I was building for my '55. I decided that I wanted to make the '55 more of a truck that I could take on road trips, so the BBC idea was shelved. I was figuring that my combo would have made about 700 horsepower. It would have been fun to take to cruise night, but not so fun on the highway.

Chevyrestoguy....

Oh crap dude....would have been perfect...

This is a bit of a after thought on my part...I just got to that place in the build when ya say to yourself..." Go big or go home "....lol...I just really like what i have going on with the truck right now and i would like to kick it up one more notch. But we will see how it goes, if i find something great if i don't thats okay too.

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
 

hey, that looks good! did you narrow the rearend? i've got a mini spool in mine with 3.73 gears and am going to trade it out for a true locker posi, since i'm going to drive it everyday and spools aren't good for cornering! what all have you done to the rearend??
