Lunati pushrods
Weiand stealth aluminum intake mani
Holley 750 carb
The transmission is a monster c6 kit built to 800 hp and has a 3500 stall converter
The motor wont go in the car even though its a numbers matching block because the oil pan is too big so i leave the state in 2 months and its gonna need cross member frame cut out in order to make this one fit or you can replace the upgraded oil pump with a stock one and throw the stock pump back on it. The car has some rust problems because its a north carolina car but unfortunately ill probably never see the thing run. Right now ive got about 3500 in interior parts, 6500 in the motor and 2000 in the transmission and a new wiring harness is already ran and mostly wired up it was just waiting on the motor to get installed to finish that portion up. Open to offers cash talks i have the title in hand as well.
Ill send photos to anyone who is interested of how the car looks now. Also open to trades. Price is somewhat negotiable. Text for questions atshow contact info, from there we could arrange a call usually I'm at work
