This is my 1965 pontiac tempest "that im trying to turn into a street /strip car," it came stock with a 326ci,at 250hp and 2 speed trans, first gear went all the way to like 90, but i just took the engine and trans out to replace it with a 389 w/335hp "stock" and a 400turbo trans, im still in the process of installing the new motor, so ill get some pics up of that also- the interior came in great shape w/ only one rip in the front seat "witch i am replacing with bucket seats anyways" the only other thing it realy needs is the quarter panels fixed and the trunks has some pitting/ little rust,( im hoping to have the new motor,trans ect in by the end of the month).............................
"these pics are since ive taken the motor out" ...
"i just took my 389 apart down to the block and i found out it will need to be bored and it needs all new internals, the only thing i can use is the block heads and possibly the crankshaft" the guy i bought it from etheier beat the crap out of it" or it had double the mialege he said it did, "so it might take a bit longer than i expected to get it back on the road,
"i talked to my machine shop guy and he told me that with the parts im putting in i should be making 420hp easy? "i hope he's right
