Could some of the Big Block guy's show pictures of their engine compartments so that I could get some ideas of how to put some "Bling" in mine which is pure stock right now. Thanks

69trk · 10-30-2007, 07:34 PM

Here's a 431 big block with fabricated valve covers, which can be polished and i plan on doing later.

corn · 10-30-2007, 11:04 PM

71Rat · 11-10-2007, 09:19 PM

corn: are those stock alt and ps brackets and locations?

corn · 11-10-2007, 11:50 PM

No, the powersteering is all mid to late 70's. The alt is home made...

kelsfine69 · 11-11-2007, 01:04 AM

Green is mean

chevy72blu · 11-11-2007, 06:38 AM

Big Block at the SouthEast Nationals in Oct 2007

**1970 CST Short Wide** · 11-11-2007, 09:36 AM

I like Flames

**PICKMUP** · 11-13-2007, 03:33 PM

Here's a pretty stock, no bling version, with a few mods: late model valve covers, early model cast iron high rise intake, motorhome stainless exh mans and a stock QJET.

streetstar · 11-13-2007, 05:05 PM

To Corn and Kelsfine --- love those vintage Edelbrock and Holley valve covers. M/T's are a tiny bit played out - but those are cool

Elsie72 · 11-13-2007, 05:14 PM

Man, do those big blocks look impressive between the fenders of classic trucks!

djracer · 11-13-2007, 06:41 PM

here's my junk

streetstar · 11-13-2007, 07:09 PM

That looks like a pretty serious piece there, DJ ---- is that the one that runs 10's?

djracer · 11-13-2007, 07:17 PM

9.39 with only 6 seconds of spray
