Nope. I wanted to go with something different, old school stuff and its not done any more. I dont think that you can beat the look of a sweet carbie on a single plane manifold, and then theirs the NOS......

We'll go on from here though over time. Bigger cam, better clutch / gearbox etc and it will run easy 10's.

Theres something special about blowing away some Jap lover with nothing more than small block goodness. Big numbers are easy/cheap with forced induction but its that all engine feel you can't beat.
