I'm a MOPAR guy but 348-409 Ruined me!!

[wristpin]

Closed the deal. I happen to have a 454/400. To make matters worse, LA Rods aka James kicked sand in my face requesting a race sometime. Before I'm as old as Phil I better get to working on this tub. Nate can i borrow your blower?

 

[La Hot Rods]

Well its about time you went to the light.
How solid is this new baby?

 

[wristpin]

I bought it sight unseen. I gave up some money and am trading some Harley parts. Turns out the seller and I know several of the same people. They all said he's a good guy. He said it needs some metal work. My plan is to drop in the 454 and drive it until I'm ready to do metal. Is metal is BAD then I'll rotisseri it and make it strong enough for a 8-71.

 

[La Hot Rods]

Those guys needing Harley part are where you get some of the best deals.

 

[La Hot Rods]

Now you can go rear end shopping.

Replace that Rat with a 409,then you can truthfully say that we saved you!!

 

[nana1962409]

Come get it anytime it’s sitting on the shelf waiting for you! Along with a set of headman bbc headers for x frame cars

 

[wristpin]

I usually shop boobs but I'll take your advice.
I have a 9"L 3.72 gears and a Dana 70 but forget the gears. Think 12 bolt disc is in order tho.

 

[wristpin]

I'll buy the little puffer and the headers but was hoping to BORROW the 6-71!!
Baby steps Don, Baby steps. Unless you got one to trade for Harley parts!

 

[nana1962409]

I told you before you can borrow it on your birthday then you just have to return it on my birthday remember?!

 

[La Hot Rods]

I have another one of those eaton blowers you can add to it so if you are lucky you can feed half of it.

 

[Tom Kochtanek]

Nice new ride, congrats!

Think you'll have it ready this summer? I'd like to see you go up against James in the BA409 .

I have to finish bodywork, paint and reassembly of a '67 El Camino then I'll pull the '63 BA into the garage. I doubt it will be ready this year for street service but one never knows. Still have full quarter to replace and full paint job on my '67 barracuda also. We may be going to 12 hour days with 3 & 4 day rotation cycles too. If that happens I'll have more garage time anyway.
BTW Tom I'm pretty sure James gave me 4 car lengths against BA409.

Look's like, it's gonna be a Fun project, wristpin. You will definitely, need a 9" rear. That 454, with near 500 lb. ft. will spit that 8.2 out like a grenade.
