Old history.....

Still needs paint and maybe some minor touchups, nothing major by any means. It has the tall spoiler but I have a new short spoiler for it. It has a plain hood but I have a steel cowl hood for it. The front end was just rebuilt using the Performance Suspension Technology (PST) polygraphite super kit. Brand new BFG's, front-P245x60x15, rear-P275x60x15 drag radials (1 or 2 burnouts), brand new WELD Prostars, front-15x7x4.5bs, rear-15x8x4.5bs, longer wheel studs, complete new front disc brake rebuild using GM parts, SSM lift bars, new driveshaft loop, new R&M safety belts, interior is in great shape, no cracks or breakage, all gauges work. Newer Pioneer stereo.
Newly rebuilt posi 12 bolt rear (4.10's). I also have the 3.73's for it too. Drive shaft recently rebalanced and new front yoke installed. New front and rear u joints.

M-22 Super Muncie tranny with Hurst competition plus shifter. Centerforce 11" clutch still in great shape. New 11" sfi approved aluminum flywheel.

355 SBC. Motor is apart, ready for prefitting and balancing. TRW pistons, GM rods, brand new comp cam w/lifters (solid), brand new 4130 forged Eagle crank. All parts were carefully checked by a machine shop and are all perfect and ready to go. Dart Iron Eagle 200cc heads w/64cc chambers. This made 10.8 cr. Screw in studs, guideplates. New main and rod bearings for the Eagle crank. New speedpro rings. New main journal stud kit. New diamond cut crank splash pan. New anti splash for the oil pump (to keep oil from running up the back of the motor). 9 1/2 qt Moroso oil pain. MSD 6AL, Holley 750 with a Proform mainbody making it flow somewhere around 800cfm. Headers, DR Gas X pipe system (sounds super), new Monroe sensimatic shocks on front and KYB's in the rear. Weiand 7535 single plane intake (also have Offy dualport intake as well), 1" spacer, aluminum hi flow water pump with chrome fittings.

The block is a 4 bolt 010 block all machine prepped (except balancing) and painted chevy orange.

brrrr.....

I bought this car in 2000. I had the rearend rebuilt with a new Eaton posi unit and 3.73 Auburn Gears. In 2001 I had Golens Engine Service build a balanced and blueprinted 4 bolt main 350 sbc to my specs. I installed the motor in the spring of 2002 after adding a few "go fast" goodies. It has 10.8:1 SpeedPro forged aluminum pistons, forged GM crank and rods, Dart 200 heads w/ Mannely SS valves, CompCam #294S Magnum cam (.248 duration, .525 lift @ .050, solid lifters) with 1.6 roller rockers, Holley 850 dbl pumper, Offenhauser DualPort 360* aluminum highrise, Thermo wrapped headers, MSD 6AL ignition, windage tray, valley pan tray, plugged and screened the valley holes for proper drainage, among other things. At the end of the summer the Muncie M-21 gave out. In the spring of 2003 I installed a new Autogear Super Muncie M-22 4 speed. To make it a bit quieter, I installed a Dr. Gas "X" pipe exhaust (3" to 2 1/2") with welded racing mufflers (adds about 10% more hp!)
