Default Re: Project Blown 305

I 100 percent agree.

I love being innovative and am shocked that I'm one of the first to attempt this with the full intent and means to make it come together.

I'll have to search the forum a bit, when searching on Google I didn't find much that was finished.

I'm actually in the process of swapping the 3 sbc's I have in cars removed in favor of something far more unique, everyone's point is I can easily do a blah blah for less money that will be faster or whatever.
It's far less about the money, far more about end look/cool and the process of getting there.


My chevelle will be the one that would make any Chevy fan cringe but the 36 Chevy is getting a Nailhead because it's period correct and the truck getting a GMC V6 because they are so cool!


Yeah those I6's are def unusual.
I do see em built now and then. Try looking up Argentina stock car racing. They only race I6's.

I'm very ready for Chevy people to be mad, my chevelle has lit a fire thus far I'm excited to put up giant torque numbers and show why it's better than the 350 Chevy in there. There was one of those 6ms posted for 900 out here like it was gold yet I'm sure they would be first to talk smack. I paid 50 for mine so I was stoked!


I also know people will prolly be slow to throw money out there it's very similar in the celica community. But I figure if I can offer shafts for cheap so people could have their pedestals opened up or if I make new ones. It will all kinda fringe on if it costs me less to make like 5 pairs vs one pair and if it's cheap enough I can sell them relatively quickly.

The rockers could be purchased separate from summit so I wouldn't supply those unless for some reason I can setup as a dealer for Harland sharp or something haha
