An old car of mine that I came across this video file this morning. Not a "Porsche" sound...I warned you! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
PS: This was the first "start up" and bleeding the cooling system - thus the trickle of fluid AND don't follow my my lousy extinguisher placement. Not practical in the time of need!!! https://youtu.be/kAbpHVoaS5s (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

That sounds awesome! Love the cam lope sound. Great looking car! What size fender flares are you running? What size are those rear tires?
Great Job! |

Cracker would you mind posting a top view of the engine/trunk area? I am interested in how you braced it all out. I want to do the same with my little 215 when I add the hairdryer to it...

MadMax - 17" wheels (9"F & 11" R - Lindseys) - 275 F / 315 rears
Eric - This was a "Hot Rod" not a race-car...all I was trying to do was "stiffin' things up" as opposed to making it track worthy. An occasional DE would have been fine but anything more would require a better system. It worked great...for what it was (and was a little different approach). A little bit of advice I'll offer...when installing a cage in the cockpit, make sure there is at least ONE middle brace welded to a plate on top of the rocker box. Also, when doing so, jack the rear of the car up and let the entire car "hang" in the air while welding on the rockers. Don't ask...just do. If you don't - you'll see the wisdom of this counsel first hand - and re-do some stuff too! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) " Jayman - It had NO problems burning-out (at least thats what the little birdie told me, of course)! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) KrazyKonrad - I'm in the Hickory Flat area. PM me your contact info... Tony Cracker would you mind posting a top view of the engine/trunk area?

Impressive swap ! |

Needed a down turn pipe - the paint was already off the valance How did air get into the trunk for the intake? T.C.- "I may not be the brightest bulb on the chandelier but I certainly ain't the dimmest either." (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) This will explain things a little better. Here is a pic of the original (w/ 901) exhaust with "twin centered" (hidden) down-pipes and a dummy "single" exhaust tip (looked real clean and was always clean!). What you're seeing with the pipes cut off is post 930 swap and was a temporary issue since there was trans/shifter cables interference. It was enjoyable watching people figure-out what was going on under there! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Regarding the intake: I simply removed the two plastic cups (the targa latch recess pockets) in the mid-trunk panel. The car made 434 rwhp (post cam/head during the 930 upgrade) so I presume it was getting oxygen for combustion. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) It wasn't ideal but I've got a much improved system on my current build. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) T.H.
