    My fathom blue LS6 will be finished in June. Only problem is, I have sh*t canned the idea to purestock race it. It will be a weekend street bruiser. Instead, I have 1964 Plymouth Savoy on the rotisserie now. The engine is on the way to the blueprinter as we speak! I plan to make it ready for Sept. Guess what? Max Wedges are expensive!!!!

    Looking for old man's race car-

    I had to pull the engine due to a crack in the outside of the block that developed during the Stanton race.
    This is the night before Easter and the engine is back in the car. The oil system needs primed, drop the distributor in, fill the center carb bowl. Probably fire it up on Monday and break in the new camshaft.
    I'll be racing at Martin and Stanton this year.

    Yes I only took the car out to that track one time. That was my old car . The car you see now I have had since 1999. That was a LONGtime ago.... :3gears: I think it was in 1996 or 97

    Wow! :TU: I remember that crusty old Buick. Looked like a granny car, except for the 3" long studs on the rear, and it ran like stink.
    As I recall they thought it went way too fast for having no roll bar.

    I love cars that look like that and still go quick. :Brow:

    I think we may be able to fulfill the early tri-power Pontiac request. I just took a call this morning on help with an '60 4spd 389 tri-power build. It will not make this year but '09 is realistic.

    We have a FAST motor for Bruno's grill. He need more power as all of us guys eat to much.
