W motors at the LA Roadster Show

[39chevy]

I was at the LA Roadster Show this past Sunday and saw a couple of nice 348 and 409 engines. The copper 348 was in a 60 Chevy with air bags. Really nicely detailed and finished. The black 409 was in a 32 Ford 5 window. Two pics of each attached.

thanks 39 for posting the photo's. Did you happen to find out
who made the serpentine belt drive set-up (brackets) for the copper
348 engine. Does any other reader recognize who the maker of the system is?

thanks

Geary, It looks like BBC from March to me. I have that exact same setup on my 63' chev pickup with a 502. You realize you would have to run a reverse rotation water pump?

The systemn is BBC. Bolts right on according to March. Reverse rotation impeller is available from Show Cars but you have to rebuild the pump yourself. Easy if you have a press.
