Always wanted to frame off restore it, but modernize some systems while I was at it.





Engine;



Have the block drilled for 4 bolt mains

EFI conversion

power output I would like to have would be 600hp @ like 8,000 RPM and 800ft/lbs torque at around 2,000. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

exhaust with a note to die for



Drivetrain;



Triple disc

Whatever 6 speed could handle the power https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

4:10 rear with a limited slip





Rolling Stock;



Coilovers

massive ******* Brembos

17x10 wheels with 285s all the way around







Exterior would be some deeply ass kicking red, and I would need a nice stereo in it too.



It would make a nice cruiser for sure. And the 6 speed + EFI would let me even take it on long ass trips! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif







Another crazy dream I had was to design and cast a DOHC system for it. To even think about funding that I would need to be either a billionaire, or a millionaire and make copies of them to sell for other Pontiac big blocks, and how many people do you see wanting to do that?

Sounds good man.. hope you'll get to build her one day.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683827.gif

That reminds me, back in the days of way back when, when I was still young and foolish and an admirer of American cars, I remember reading in a Hot Rod magazine about a 4-valve-per-cylinder head for the big block Chevy. It was still a pushrod system though. It used little auxiliary pushrods going across the head for the exhaust valves.



Also, much more recently, there was a guy who took a Jaguar V12 and built his own DOHC heads for it. It was installed in an XKE-based mid-engine car (which he had also built). There's a website on it somewhere . . .

LMAO, I have to have traction though! How else do you think I can do 500 foot long burnouts right now? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/tongue.png

dude if you look in hot rod, they are still running like 195/60/14's no wonder they can do big smoky burnouts
