    Please, please, get some PB Blaster or WD40 to clean up the gas stains on the blower. Your leaky Holleys aren't on it any more.

          So is the 427 going to hide under the hood? I thought the 427 was going in the Chevy II?

            The LS-7 is going to hide under the hood. Until I figure out what I'm doing....which may involve some head/block swaps and a 59 pickup truck.

                First the crusher Camaro, now Squirrel's '55.

                  Makes financial sense to me. The AFX Nova is somewhat of a limited use purpose built car, so why have two blowers when one will be collecting dust most the time.

                      Paint match looks good. How much slower will it be with out the blower?

                        It used to be a second slower with a different engine. But this one has less compression...I have no idea how it's going to run

                          Now, you can run cheap 87 octane.

                            I've been running expensive 87 for a long time. I do fill it with 91 if I'm going racing

                              That looks so odd with no SC!

                                The engine bay looks like the Grand Canyon with that puny little 4 bbl on there! I'll wager it'll still be pretty peppy.
