Finally Completed

[65vette396]

Well guys, finally got everything together and running. Car went 10.17 @ 133 last weekend with a missing fat tune of 10.60-10.8 AFR on the wideband. and 19 lbs. of boost. Hoping for mid to low 9's when I get it tuned on 25-26 PSI. Can someone tell me how to re-size pics so I can post here? or should I just email so to you guys and get you to post em. Let me know. Thanks, Drew

That turbo I've seen in a full weight Turbo Regal and 274ci S2 setup go mid 8's@165mph on race gas driving to/from the track. It should go easy low 9's.

Nice combo.. Those are really titanium rods? Wow!!

I assume you live in TX since you had Conleys help orchestrate this madness?

Yeah, I believe the car would go 8's if I really crank it up. I believe the car would go high 9's on 19 psi. if I ever get that one really clean pass. Times are soon to come on C-16 and 25-26 PSI. and I don't know how brave I am gonna get with the boost controler. Thanks for the kind words and yes it really does have a set of titanium rods in it, luckily I didn't buy them lol. I actually live in Tennessee, but purchased the car out of Texas. Conleys did all of the work originally and I purchased the car with a hurt cylinder (cir clip came out, wrist pin tore up a sleave). Hopefully Norbs can get the pics of this thing up soon as I think the motor looks pretty good. I will post pics of the car later if I can figure out how to post. Thanks again, Drew

Drew, Looks Great. Who owned the car before you? Just curious, There arn't alot of those style intakes out there any more. Good Luck with it & keep us posted.

Was that manifold modified from original? I have a conley's intake looks identical on the runners but the plenum lid and TB look different. Where is the turbo going with those headers

Norbs, I will take care of you brotha. Where do I send that new virgin 0153 block again??? let me know and I will pay shipping . Seriously though, thanks a lot for your help.

Chris, I will verify when I get to the shop on Monday, but I believe my paperwork said Ron Williams originally owned the car and then it went to Wayne Eddy as far as I can remember. I will verify on Monday. Also, thanks for the kind words, you guys do some top notch work, that is for sure. Did I mention the car still has the old solid flat tappet custom Conley's grind cam in it??? lol


ChevyII, I have not touched the intake other than polishing it up and painting the CPP logo. The throttle body is an 85 mm. BBK mustang piece, was on there when I bought it. Headers have a crossover not in the pictures and a 3 in. up pipe. They are just hooker headers which I added V-bands to, so I could elliminate the junk three bolt flange and gastkets. I will post, or have someone help me post finished in car picts very soon. Thanks again, Drew
