Now that's a nice engine.

Sort of a cross between a Boss 429 and a Hemi 426.

Congrats on a nice build.

Cheers,
Frank.

Great looking car!:cool:

What rear end is that?

It looks really simple to fit.

the plates are bolted to my other car and the heads have been rounded off.

The rear end is from Total control products in the USA and bolts strait in. only have to weld 2 brackets to the diff. The bottom arm brackets bolt up to were the leef springs bolt up to with u bolts. But i modded mine and welded them to the diff for a cleaner look.

Looking good!
You could fit some nice headers in there, but with all that room, a nice turbo log would be just nice!

Where'd you get the 'Go baby Go" knob from and how much?
Did you have to specify the thread size?

Bas the go baby go knobs are correct for an eleanor so the thread size should be standard :rol::bolt:
