Also new to the forum. =O

Hey guys,
Just wanted to show you my project. been working on her for 6 years. Was my first vehicle, givin' to me from my grandpa. Me and my dad have been working on this for a while. Probably the youngest guy on the forum, I'm only 25, and I found this site while looking for some info to further my project so I decided to go ahead and sign up and show you all what I have.

The engine isn't a current picture. the alternator is no longer WAY up top. had to change that 3 alternators and 4 brackets later lol.

Welcome to the forum. Glad you found us. You're not the youngest however, I think we have members in their early teens or even younger! This is an interesting place for any 60-66 enthusiast. Looks like your engine has had some nice work put into it. Post more pictures when you get a chance.

Re: Also new to the forum. =O

I have a Few pictures of the build thus far. I can post if interested. Didn't know if I should make a new thread for it. or use this one.

Yeah, I'm about 6 grand in on the engine.

1965 327 out of a corvette. bore out 40 over, Has the camel hump heads as they call em. I am running a mild cam with Edelbrock quadrajet with matched intake manifold. And there are some other goodies like z28 springs and things like that.

I had originally built it with a Holly carb and manifold. but I couldn't get the thing to work. So I went with the Edelbrock.

nothing too serious just enough to get her on the street. currently running it on a turbo 350 transmission. but was about to try to search the forum for a Auto transmission with a overdrive. I know 700r4 are popular but I'm not familiar with them. Also didn't know if there are other autos out there with overdrives that would be better.
