This is the starting point , its a 50 footer. Ive got 30+ hrs of paint correction to get it in the shape you see in the pics and I had to replace the headlights,tires,shocks and exhaust.
Pics of engine before
Original had a hard life from previous owner with lots of "patch work" to fix things. he ended up snapping oil pump rod and parking it under a pine tree for 2yrs.
Phase 1
I originally wanted to go back to the factory gray but started noticing alot of others with close to the same color
Stock block .30 over
Stock new internals and the balanced
Stock ported E7 heads
Edelbrock performer II intake
70mm TB and spacer
A/c delete
Aluminum Jegs radiator and Jegs electric fan
Next thing I did was a wire tuck and used a 89 harness and computer to do a mass air swap. I went with a 76mm meter and 24lb injectors. Seemed to run good so I left it alone in that part until phase 2.
