CHROME NO CHROME well very minimal I really just like it plain and simple Black, it makes it stand out...
Thanks for the comments guys

petey-pablo · 10-01-2009, 02:46 AM

Thanks for the comments everyone I have been waiting for this & it looks like I am going to have some fun driving it

I have the kickdown cable to install and a few other things. I also want to get it checked before I really lay it down it spudders when I am about to get on it like it hesitates.It felt good on the freeway though. I even had a big pop from the Carb & a smoke cloud when I gave the gas a tap at low speed any Ideas what it might be?

petey-pablo · 10-01-2009, 03:08 AM

This is the only video I have at this time it was taken back in July when I finally had my doors and fenders on, I had no tags & No insurance so I wasn't Legal. I will be makeing a new video soon keep an eye out for it

mplex2000 · 10-01-2009, 03:55 PM

Sounds brutal. Which exhaust are you running? I think I must have missed the build thread, I'll search for it now though.

I'm so happy to have finally made the jump to the big block...and last night I noticed mine came with the 781 heads. I just might be able to save some money and use those...
