***Under Construction....Please Bear With Me***
UPDATE!!!! As of now the engine is out of the car due to a lack of compression. Although the heads and block are numbers matching to the car, I've decided to save them for later use and use a different motor.....a 454 to be exact. I've decided to stroke the motor to a 460ish with a roller cam setup and aluminum heads. Final output should be about 500hp and I'm hoping 600 ft lbs of torque. My goal is to have it running by the fall. Updates and pics to follow.
This is my GTO. It is a 69 with a 400 BB. As for what's in it, there's just too much to list. :-) Although, this car still has the original heads, crank, rods and block in it.
I've had a few people ask, so just for the record: the stripes and mural on this car are almost completely hand painted. There is a little bit of air brushing, but not much. For the rest of the car, it's a Black Cherry basecoat with a purple Midcoat.
A few more pics....
Here is the old motor picks, she no long resembles that. The chevy orange paint is the way it was when I purchased the vehicle, but to date I changed it back to pontiac blue. As of right now the motor and trans are being rebuilt. Preliminary specs have the motor bored 40 over and being stroked. Pics will come this winter of the new assembly.
This is a copy of the original bill, would be nice if cars were still that cheap!
This was me being stupid and brake torqueing which caused my rear end to well....you get the idea.
