Why stock GM? The price was right.

My 81 GP, just a 305 but always makes everyone scratch their heads and say ''what the F##K'' everytime I open the hood.

Is that from a Camaro or a Corvette? I had that whole set up off a Camaro in my basement waiting for something to put it in. Then I scraped it when I moved. Great job being unique. :notworthy:

It's from a Camaro. And thanks for the compliment . I tried to make it look as much as I could like a factory install, in fact the only single part thats not stock GM is the prom chip which I had custom burned to delete the VATS from the ecm since I used a newer one from an 89-91 Fbody with TBI.

Here is my motor - 1980 L82 Vette block, stock pistons, 305HO heads ported and polished (a little), Summit cam, eledbrock intake and carb, Flowtech afterburner headers- All hand built built by me- first one I ever did Cam bearings and freeze plugs in myself.
