What are the specs?

 

[yellowkeeble]

440 bored .30 over with 10:1 compression ratio with flat top pistions, aluminum heads are 2.14" and 1.81" valves with solid lifters and I don't remember the cam specs off the top of my head. Pertronix distributor along with schumacher ceramic coated headers.

The cam is a comp cam. I'll update for secific lift and duration tomorrow.

The engine and transmission are bolted down. Some wiring and plumbing and hopefully it'll be running soon.

Most of the time people put A lot of money and big engines in B,E bodies nice to see a change it should move that car around nice.

The best part is my buddy who owns a 67 GTO is a little afriad of my final product.

It looks right at home in the engine bay. When do you anticipate being able to take the car on it's first shake down cruise?

I'm out of town next week but hope to have the rest of the brackets and parts cleaned, painted and installed. The unfortunate part is the dual snorkle air cleaner will not fit due to the raised intake and not enough clearance. I'll tackle the wiring when I get back so maybe 2-3 weeks and it should be ready for exhaust and new shoes. Does anyone know where I can find the 8 pin wire connector for the engine harness that connects to the bnilkhead in the firewall?

FYI-That is not my actual air cleaner. Just a photo I found.

Here's what I was looking at. I'm sure there are more. Maybe a member that has used one from someone.

I was truly hoping to find teh connector or a kit to replace the pin and wire. I'd hate to purchase an entire wire harness for a connector.
