Gotta be close to 100 lbs between the compressor, bracketry, intake, condenser etc.

Yes her legally sanctioned "track" style racing days might be limited but a few street blasts will be forthcoming.....

It'll be interesting to see the change in ET's if the car makes it back to the track. The additional 100lbs is a tenth but any further losses will be intake + carb. It should still run in the 13's  ;)

Here is the intake that was on my 69 440.  The previous owner had it plumbed up for NOS but never hooked it up.  Its a Wiend and the number on it is 7500.  I dont know what this thing is worth?..?? Anything?

Check out the valley pan modification they did to make it fit.   :o    There was this blue sealant all over inside the engine.  This engine was rebuilt last in the early 80's.

Ron, but he did a hell of a job conceiling it.  Kudos to that guy!

Chris,

Just curious if you are going to be using the exhaust cross over block off valley pan?

Yep I used it (same as before) BUUUUTTT....  I drilled a 5/16" hole on the pass side to give the choke coil a bit of heat.....

Ahhhhh that is a GREAT idea.  Im sure that would help with my cold start ups since it takes forever to reach normal temp.
