two photos....both fisheye (got my new lens from belarus, ukraine). first of them is a shot of the test sidedraft on the manifold. we got one from pierce to check clearance between the carbs and valvecovers. going to need to change the rocker arms to pro magnum's and the valvecovers to fabricated aluminum. second photo is...that's right the elco grill after surgery.

oooohhh, side drafts on a V8, looks nice. I have always like the quad IDA setup for V8's myself, but between hood clearance and $1600-2000 in carburators, it just isn't feasible for me. But it looks damn good!

well in this case, the dcoe's appear to clear MUCH better than a four barrel. it is $1800 for the carbs, linkage, air horns and -an fit fuel lines. is it worth it? probably not, but the jag will look like it came with an sbc in it because of them, imho.

man... the domestic forum has gone seriously down hill... i remember back when the import forum was for making fun of the ricers and the domestic forum was where all the serious discussion was... eh, times change...

so what software did you have to download to get the video to work, metal? I can't find anything about it on the quicktime web-site so i'm just getting sound and a white screen....

somebody need pics of uglies wife?

PM me and I'll send ya some.

Wussup bro?

I've been lurking the boards every once in a while. Don't type to much. Busted up my wrist rolling my sled in Wells (near Barkerville in the BC Interior) world class sledding and fucking insane hill climbs. Rolled when I didn't have enough momentemum to cut the berm and rolled my baby about 30ish times down to the bottom. I tried to stop the first rollover with my wrist. Didn't work. Even had fresh paint on the hood (now is totally fuct) tunnel twisted, tore off left ski, lost pipe somewhere???, hood, windshield, belly toast.

Gonna fucken ride skud for now on. Gawdaamn mountains. Stick to the Jet ski for now on, no hill climbs to fuck with unless maybe I can get enough momentum to climb that little waterfall......hmmmmm.....aw fuck. Whaddamigonnado??
