    cool-you know i like a bodies with gen 3's and blowthru, lol
    that thing should be neat as hell-a few guys have done some goats, but no motor like yours for sure
    i used a caddy cts pan on mine, cleared pretty good, depending on where you put the engine
    i had a 64 goat in the 60's i street raced, won a lot of races(i never mentioned the engine came out of a 65 2+2, 421, lol)

    Thanks, this car has been in the family a long time. When we first buildt it was powered by a 400 pontiac ran 7.0s in the 1/8 mile ran the Pontiacs for a long time.Then we installed a blown and injected BBC ran a best of 5.17 @ 143 mph. We ran n/a,nitrous,blown now a Gen III smallblock with turbos should be fun.

    Slowly putting it back together.Headers are done. Hav'nt decided if I'm going to turn the exh.out the fender or run it under the car. Just dropped the cold side off to be welded. Fuel pump mounted,lines are 90%. Remove old wiring ready to rewire. Need to remove the 4.86 and install the 3.50 rear gear. I'll get some pictures when I get the cold side back. Not in a hurry not planning to have it out till next season. I also looking for a NOS Cheater plate for a square Holley let me know if anyone has one at a deal.

    The 76s are good for 850-875 ea plus I put a small plate on it to help get it going if needed. I just want to run 4.80s in the 1/8 @ 2600 lbs on 10.5s
