Its just an old SBC the motor only makes like sub 200hp, but with my cam and Holley 750 it should have been close to 300 and about 450 on the bottle... With the 1bar setup the car should easily make 7xx before the motor blows... but this is all estimations...

I'm not making it look easy, my buddy Eddie is...I think he can do pretty much anything with a welder lol I like cutting shit. Blame the nasty looking welds on me learning lol.

While it does not make a reliable daily driver, Ill bet it does make a fun project car, does it not?
They always say, [Cheap, Fast, Reliable] pick two. I know which two you chose
I have a daily for that reason.... I <3 the performance triangle!

Thanks! If I had access to work in a shop it would make this process so much faster but I'm fine with my hand tools and this little electric welder lol.

Most old SBC's don't run intercooled setups... I'm still thinking about running one but I probably won't since the efficiency gain would be minimal.

My Dummy Exhaust for when I happen to "accidently" take the car on the street...
