Finally did the engine swap...
Hi Guys,
It's been quite a while since I've posted anything on here. But, I haven't really had much to post about! So, I finally took a week off from work, and worked even harder by doing my engine swap! It's just a 260 hp GM crate engine, with a CS-274 cam, Edelbrock performer intake, rebuilt 1977 Camaro Quadrajet...but, I'm pretty happy with the way it is looking in the old '72! I hope to fire it up tonight! Oh, I also did a complete Flowmaster exhaust, so I hope to get a video posted, once I get it dialed in! Here's a pic of the engine bay when I first got it versus how it's looking now... Thanks Guys! Chris |

Nice job! I'm hoping to drop a 350 crate motor in my truck sometime this summer.
