It's completely stock with 103k on it. It needed suspension, electrical and exhaust all of that is mostly sorted. Going to install a ms2 with an adapter board. I'm thinking a single on the passenger side. Any thoughts on a good match for the stock 302? I have a gt4202 with a 1.01 t6 housing but not sure that would work. Looking for something fun to drive and some test and tune...
Well I am finally starting a build thread on this car. It has been a long time coming and this car was the reason I joined this site. Had a lot of life got in the way problems while I was getting the parts together for this, mainly having to deal with osteoarthritis in my left hip. I was diagnosed when I was 45 and I had to wait until I was at least 55 before they would do it. Living in...

I picked this truck up in 2013 on a whim, I saw it for sale in a Craigslist ad and the next day I was picking it up. It had a very clean body and a stock 350sbc and th350 transmission in it. The truck ran very good and could have cruised it anywhere. All factory interior which was also in great shape. I halfway wish I would have left it like that...but that’s no fun haha. Sadly the only...
I haven’t been here in a long time a few years to be more specific. I have given up on the studebaker as I got tired of building even the smallest things and let it go cheap. I kept the motor and trans, bought a 65 Chevy C10 stepside, doing a back half ladder bar, 10 pt cage, coil overs front and rear 30X15X30 rear slicks, skinnies up front, EFI, aluminum heads, MSD 6530 you name it, Ive...
I wanted to share my build on a '30 Ford Roadster. It is an all steel body that was bought about 15 years ago but the owner passed away and I got the roadster from my cousin. If it had been an original Model A I would not have rodded it but I wanted to build one more Model A with a flathead. This is as bought. b2-s.jpg ...
Figured I'd start a thread, I don't have this info compiled anywhere else. I've taken pictures most of the way so I'm going to try to make a timeline and get critique/suggestions along the way. All started when I saw it on Craigslist....$800 no engine or transmission, bone stock with a pile of spares in the trunk. No plans, wanted to lower it and swap in a stock small...
I'm finally getting around to starting a build thread on this car. I received a lot of help last year trying to sort out some issues (https://www.theturboforums.com/threads/4-8-gt45-th400-sloppy-build-slower-than-expected.386737/) and I've been lurking for years. I enjoy build threads, so maybe someone will enjoy this one. Going back a few years... I pulled this out of my uncles...
I've always wanted a race car. Anything I've ever built or attempted to build always took the direction of heading towards becoming a race car. As such, I sold my Fairlane project for reasons and bought myself a race car that already has the stuff done to it that always ends up becoming a hurdle or discouraging for me. Here it is. 1998 Camaro Z28. As purchased it included a 5.3 with an...
