You, my friend, are very talented!!!  That's awesome!!!  Any plans to bring it down south again soon?

Bentparts, I am going to ship my 4dr to you and when I get it back, it better look like this....

Man... now that is a nice piece of kit. 

Quick question though, is that a strut or spring spacer in your engine compartment in the lower left?

 "Quick question though, is that a strut or spring spacer in your engine compartment in the lower left?"

I think what your looking at is the attachment bracket for my bildge fan engine compartment cooling. The tubing attaches there. It's some kind of intake hose adapter I used. Thanks for the props!

Element, I can build you one, but you wouldn't like the price!!! 

LiLRed, Rita and I were just talking about another trip down south. Hope we can get together soon, looking forward to those mountains now that I've got tcase gears! Lets do it!!

Nobody noticed I spelled  "generation" wrong! Yeah, I can bend parts , but I can't spell!

i admit

not being able to see this amazing piece of work in person is disappointing


you did a great job bro

Do you have any guess as to how many horse power and torque specs?

Just a guesstimite, but I would put the increase at 35hp and 35ft lbs for torque, very conservetivly. This is with a fairly well used motor, probably needing rings to say the least. A recent compression test put all the cylinders at or near 170lbs, the minimum according to the FSM. With a fresh motor, good rings and a good valve job, It could easily bump the HP # to 160, torque even better. I need to start looking around for a short block to rebuild.
