Re: 65 C10 Little Blue Snot Rocket

Man I totally dig your custom grille!!
I almost drooled when I saw your motor too...
I would be curious to know how much horse you get from that set up when you are done and it is running.

I just had my OHC-6 230ci rebuilt last year for my Tempest, and had a custom cam put in, with dual exhaust and a 4bbl Edelbrock on it. When you pop the hood on this truck you are going to get a lot of the same looks and questions I get when folks see that carb on my IL6.
Next summer when I am home I hope to find some place where I can get the horse power rated. My engine stock would have put out 165 hp, and I am hoping now it will be up in the 215 hp range.
You can take a peek at it on my CarDomain link, page 3.

Are you going to stay with the green, because that is just too radical, I dig it
