that car is sick and looks like a blast to drive
Looks like all you need under the hood is a pair of black billet hood hinges to go with that sick engine :)

Here are a few more pics of the car. I pretty much bought the car the way it sits. I have installed a new Be Cool radiator, billet alternator, done some brake work, and installed a few miscellaneous parts. I did call Marquez Designs today to place an order for there billet RS taillights. I am also going to purchase real soon the carbon fiber Covan dash with the carbon fiber autometer gauges. Also, I drive this car. This is not a trailer queen. It's a blast to drive on the street!!!!! :D
P.S. -- I know my thermostat gasket is leaking and when I bought the car, the intake was powder coated and they had a leaking carb gasket which stained the intake. I am in the process of getting these problems fixed. I know you guys are car freeks and would notice this!!!!!

Welcome, nice ride!! :thumbsup:
FWIW, I would use the DSE dash as it's a way nicer piece. I have the Covan's insert in my 68, since it's the only option, it is ok but a little light on the thickness of material used...you just can't beet the metal DSE insert!

Projectile: The motor is 565 cubic inches and the procharger is making 10 pounds of boost. The car was dynoed at 1132 HP on 93 octane.

that's unbelieveable power for 10 psi of boost. It must be making over 700 HP n/a.

Sounds like a happy combo. Can you imagine 15 psi with 100+ octane!

I bet that thing is a blast to drive...and a handful
I agree about the DSE dash. Very nice piece.

Did you say you have a powerglide in that monster?! A two speed powerglide?! What do you do... 0 to 60 in 1.2 seconds? Geez... it would be awesome to hear you hit top speed right past me. You must sound like a bat out of hell... or some other loud ferocious demon from there!
Sweet ride Bro. I can only sit here and drool:bow:

Yes it has a glide in it. As far as 0-60, I have no idea what the car would do. This car will not even come close to hooking on 315's. I would like to take it to the track on day to get an idea what the car would run. The car has no cage in it. I've been told the car should run in the high 9's to low 10's with the way it is sitting right now (except rear tires). This car really needs a good drag radial behind it. But I really like the wheel and tire combo it sits on now. Remember also that I drive this car on the street as well. The sound of the car is like on other. The sound of the f2 procharger is so loud that it is somewhat hard to hear the exhaust (except from the rear of the car). The exhaust on the car is a flowmaster set up (3 inch full exhaust) with the X pipe. The car was so loud when I bought it, that I ran the tailpipes out behind the rear tires.

I hear ya, i have a buddy that's running an F2. He takes the belt off for like 2-3 blocks when leaving from his house not to piss the neighbourg's off!!! It really is that loud. If it was only for the "Thump" it wouldn't be that bad, but the sound of the impeller hitting the wind makes this sound so HIGH pitched its ear scorching...
Too cool no?!!! :thumbsup:
Lead.
Neat car BTW.
