These are some pic's of the recent engine that was installed into the 85 gsl. Its a 12a bridgeport, machined carburator venturies and drilled jets. There is also a FC front mount oil cooler being installed very soon. I was also given a sheet of expanded mesh that i'm going to do a one off custom grille. I also have my white face guages installed already as you can see from one of the last pics.
