Hmm engine plans. Where to start but im still considering new block with splayed caps I mean bessel motorsports block with splayed caps and 331 stroker in it. After that my machine shop guy told me he can work my stock heads so much that intake is 1,94" and exhaust would be 1,60" and increase air flow so it could be good for 450hp. I have though about 450-500hp and with moates quartehouse chip it would all be running with A9L computer and ofcourse fuel injection. Those are my little ideas so what do you think?

Hy a little progress is going on all the time but don´t have all the pics of the car. So I took off intake and cyl. heads and bought two 6 ton  jack stands. Maybe I´ll buy two more but right now it´s good to remove rear end and front end. I have looked out the right body shop for me so if body is clean then all the body panel will be changed in body shop.

Thanks
To daminc : I have no experiance with body work, I´m engine builder but I´ve always been intrested of bodywork but I want perfect body so I would just mess it up and I´ll have to send it to the bodyshop. If you have some good advice then all advices are welcome.

Hy everyone, I haven´t had time for my car for a long time so now I got one free day and did few things. I packed my quarter windows and door glasses. I took off headers, transmission linkage drilled out all the rivets in doors and took out door glass motors , locks. Remowed hood and tomorrow hoping to get the transmission out and cut rear glass off.
Few pics of car when I pushed it out to breath some fresh air.

That´s awesome ! Atleast I like it if I would have buttstuffog cluster then I would definately want to buy it from you but I´m happy with my full digi cluster :D Now you have to look for tach with 10 000 rpms from BBK you never know what have they produced.

That´s definately cool find I would put in the sport if I were you and sell the 140 speedo. Cause I have reached 135 with my tbird and if project is done Im hoping to get some bigger numbers. But it´s uniq and almost nobody else have it. So you think what you like most and let the best one be in your sport.

I was reading that clutch thing and then I read it again and again and then what do you mean you don´t use your clutch all the time you change gear and so. Is this some joke or what.. anyway as much as I have learned about transmissions then I always use clutch.
I still don´t really get it --> don´t use clutch all the time. Ok maybe I´m weird.
But you vinnie have done good job and good luck for searching Mass Air meter. I want to work on my block already.
