Re: Project Down Range.

Little update waiting on parts has stalled most progress. Well since the engine is going to look as stock as possible i wanted to run a stock air cleaner. And on that same note i will make 600hp, so airflow restriction is not really an option. So i drilled a bunch of holes in the stock air cleaner to promote as much velocity as possible. Now its off to powder coat, and i got the tag stickers.

Ok Ok , Well guys i have been looking for a family hauler here recently. And i have always loved the nova wagons so... here she is 67 nova wagon- forged 355 with aluminum heads, vintage air, saginaw 4 speed, 3.55 gears, entire undercarriage and engine compartment painted, smooth firewall, new wiring harness,paint by arizona sun. Basically a brand spankin new car motor has 850 miles on it. I drove it back from Phoenix through the desert in 90 degree heat with no problems. It will be getting a pro touring treatment but the paint is stayin i love the fade and patina.
