Very nice build. Let me get this straight.... I have a 1971 Camaro that came with a big block so If I wanted to run Gas Coupe ( engine swap ) I could declare my car now a 1973 Camaro.... that didn't come with a big block ? Please educate me on this. Thanks

That sounds a little strange to me, but I have been confused before...

so this weeks progress consisted of picking up the camaro from the fab shop and transporting it to my friends bodyshop. need to take care of a rust spot on the passenger cowling area and a spot at the driver footwell / firewall. once that phase is done, we'll bring her back to fab shop to finish firewall. bodyshop phase is an estimated two weeks i figure in three weeks i'll be throwing parts at her. i have a smaller wet sump big block i might install so as i can have a running car sooner so i can take to el mirage before end of year. gives me more time to set up DAS BULLIT even better. and again have tech inspect and inform me of any modifications needed before paint and powdercoat. and possibly even a license pass or two. :-D :-D :-D

nope not gonna make this speedweek. hopefully next year. it seems a divorce got in my way. still in the middle of that. i did sell my cobra though and that helped a ton in the parts dept. my custom kinsler fuel injection will be here on thursday. mike cook is delivering my wheels and tires to me at the salt on fri. 12 aug. racepak ordered and paid for. two cars together with the $. that way i get two cars for the price of one. besides, i can always build me an other cobra someday..............maybe. been there done that. think i see a ferrari in the works. but thats down the road. right now, it's all about BONNEVILLE baby. and the quest for MY RED HAT.
