Re: show those engines

Those are some inspiring pics and engines. Just starting my project, but hope my stock 347 looks half as good as all of yours in a few years.

That GN was a great car, fast, kept it clean and tuned. Had a ‘hot’ chip and intercooler mods. Was my everyday driver for 160,000 miles including towing my race bikes. I miss it.

Uncle always refers to the Detroits Diesels as “Screaming Green Leakers”.
Of course he spent his time across the street working at the Cummins service center.
Engine looks great—
