I've been busy (Lot of Pics)

The car is up and running, in fact I drove it all the way to school today with no problems.
Some pics of new intake carb setup

Figured while I was painting I would paint the sway bars and put new links/bushings

BTW I'm in the market for 373's for a 7.5 rear and maybe a posi if someone has one laying around. May think about 3.42 and 4.10s

The Monte looks sharp. I take with the Ford 9 you are preparing to make some power. With headers nice exhaust and a new intake and carb you probably plan to carry it over to a 383/406. Assuming just a small block and keeping the 200-4R you could take advantage of some 3.90 even 4.10 gears with a 28" tire and have a sweet setup. Matched to the cam & heads a great quartermile gear and a great highway cruising fuel mileage gear. Very cool. 8)

I've acually been looking at Jegs and Summit at there rotating assmeblies ready to go into a SBC block. You have any experience with these setups? I was just going to put some gears in the 7.5 til I get the cash to build the 9inch.

12-1? As in static compression? I take it you are planning on running race fuel. Hypertec pistons? Hypereutectic? If so don't detonate them as they are much more brittle than old cast pistons.

 

[Blue86Monte]

Not my favorite choice for pistons, but it's what I got so I'll make due. Pretty muchs puts the end for a driver..
