    Poor omar :(

    Ugghh, Mogiapolis is overrun with skinnies. Wife and I were there this summer, and parts of the city remind me of being in Mogadishu in 1993. Wouldn’t be surprised if a terrorist attack originates from there, since half of the airport employees are Somali.

    1959-1963 cowl tags

    Carl, Here is the tag from my SL build convertible. Interesting to see how each plant used different codes for the top color.

    SBC parts combo

    Wow, 2.21 behind a 3.8? And I thought the 2.56 was tall. What’s that, 0-60 in 45 seconds? The 2.56 was the tallest you could get in a 69 Camaro.

    Thinking of using a 2000 stall converter. Whatcha think?

    Yep it shows as 2.56 on the Protecto-Plate. I didn’t believe it either, but it was pretty good on gas

    SBC parts combo

    I did do a few searches last year and found some info, but I trust y’all on here more. I knew the change to the rear gear was a must, just wasn’t really sure about the engine parts combination.

    Here’s the piston...not sure if a flat top would have been better. Anyone know how much of the vortec spark plug boss can be shaved?

    I don’t mind the 307, it had a little power and would get 22 mpg back in its prime.

    That guy is pretty dang funny. Surprised he got that power out of those questionable parts. She wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between small blocks. But I’d hate to have to lie to her all the time, lol. I’ll have to look into that 3.750 stroke combo.

    Yes, the pistons can be made to achieve zero deck

    SBC parts combo

    Yes, that’s what I told her, lol. Guess I’ll just have to add some power to the Impala!
