GBOTM: June '12 Entries Thread

Nothing to great looking here, but this has pretty much been the first topic I've been able to post, so here it goes lol



-355
-10.5:1
-worked over L82 2.02 heads
-274 Energizer cam
-MSD StreetFire HEI and wires
-unknown aluminum intake
-Edelbrock 600cfm carb (temporary)
-shorty headers
-made about 430 HP on dyno with 750 Demon, and unknown ignition and exhaust

Now I know it's no show car engine bay. But the goal here is for it to be a sleeper.So some dirt and grime are just what I want. When people ask what's in it, I'm gonna say it's a HO 305 from an 80s Monte SS. If they ask about the lumpy idle, I'll try to say that it has a fouled plug or something. Now the fun part... When they ask what's done to it I'm gonna use this line, " Well it was already a HO 305 to begin with, then I added an RV cam, aluminum intake from ebay, headers, chrome valve covers, chrome air cleaner, flex fan, fuel filter, red HEI cap, and MSD wires." (also for now I can point out the Edelbrock carb, but a Quadrajet will be going on soon, then it's even easier to pass off as a sleeper). Pointing out items that make no power increase should help to make me look more like an idiot lol. Future plans: get some more of those cheap parts store chrome engine bay accessories. Either get the A/C hooked back up, or swap to a non-A/C box. Stock type fan or electric. I'm not going for the 'stock' sleeper, more for the 'stupid guy who put a few minor things on a stock 305 and now thinks it's a race car' kind of sleeper.
