I have been collecting parts since last April. Car is a super clean 83 calias 65k miles all stock. Plans are quick performance 9 inch. Olds 355 with sniper 2. Turbo 350 trans. Motor is done 355 flat top pistons. Baby roller cam. Heads are #8 with 455 valves. These heads were worked on by Batten years ago when his shop was in Detroit area. Compression is about 10.1. Should be 350ish hp. Not building a race car just a cruiser.
