Is that the current condition or have you made further progress? |

I have made further progress. Not a whole lot, but progress. I opted to go with cast iron exhaust manifolds, for fit purposes, than headers.

Is that a 350 with disguised intake and VC's? Or 350 heads on a 327? Engine looks killer. Hate to be stupid about V8's. Killer chassis too!  |

Hi. This is a 350/330 horse with finned aluminum Corvette valve covers. Has a Edelbrock intake with a Holley 670. Also, I am running a Mallory ignition. plan on doing some work tomorrow on the project, as it is supposed to be 95 degrees, too hot to do any outdoor projects. I am glad that I air conditioned my garage last year. Plans are to start fabbing some body mounts. |

I am keeping an eye on this thread.
For $H1tS and Giggles, type in the Gallery search engine " V8 " and all the V8 eye candy pops up. |

Looked like it was gonna be real nice!
I am guessing he is too busy finishing it up to post
I too have a 350 Chevy in a T3 Squareback. It has been a hilarious car to have fun with. |

Nice... not to mention a 700R4 (4L60) trans...
Which is like...1/2 a 350 turbo with an overdrive... 
Looks like from an F body....
Vw's are just my home hobby.. I bleed GM blue with lots of ATF mixed in.....
