Man, I fell in love with this the instant it pulled in the shop, especially when it was running.

My camera really doesn't like bright light when trying to focus.

Lucky bastard...
Theres a green 53 (I think) Chevy running around a local town, but not nearly as good lookin'.
Whats it sound like? Big engine, but what's it coming out of?

[OriginalRebel]

It's coming out of straight pipes with 60's style resonator/hollow glasspacks. It has a wild cam in it so it sounds awesome at idle.

[Westopher]

So is it idiling at a high RPM? BTW, gotta love the glasspack with the right engine.

[OriginalRebel]

With a radical cam it runs on the verge of stalling, it probably idles around 400rpm.

Does it get into like a lope when it idles?

Yeah, that's what I mean by a radical cam. The duration causes it to have that lopey idle.

Lopey Idle = ****in awesome. So far the best idle Ive heard is the Datsun 240z with the s/c 350.

A resonator stuffed with fiberglass to absorb the sound.
