finally finishing "Chuck Morris" the morris minor gasser!

Update! new pics! have been installing glass and lights and such.

 

oh and by the way, even though I have went through such trouble with building this engine myself, I have a line on a Fully forged 671 blown 350 built by BDS ready to drop in. Oh man how that motor would complete this car. Doing what I can to aquire it, wish me luck

 

good luck, cool as hell

 

Man that oughta be a handful at the track! Cool stuff!

 

looks damn good

 

Lookin good

Wheelie Bars.............??

?x2 Just luv it, all ways liked moggies, my first car at age 15. but whats gonna stop it turnin turtle when ya floor the gas peddle with that much power

 

Very cool!

 

x2!

 

X3! Awesome!

 

Good lord, that thing is sweet! I would be terrified to romp the gas in that thing.. it's like a supercharged rollerskate!! ...And I mean that in good way

We're biulding one as well, but goin a bit in the opposite direction as far as stance goes:



Beautiful build, i'll be excitedly watching the progress!

 

I remember one called "Morris Major" running at Bremerton Wa back in the '70s. Broke a rod end on a ladder bar and took out the lights on the top end, needed a couple trucks to haul the pieces back to the pits...

 

Chuck would not approve of a SBC....BB all the way, cut those inner fenders...LOL
NICE color, my all time fav.
All my race cars, team uniforms, soap box cars, derby cars, bicycle and trim on my ...46 ford p/u are Hugger orange...and soon to be tatoo

 

Thanks guys. Chuck chuck chuck, bad as fuck. Hahaha. I am deffinaelty upgrading to the bds motor with 671. He will be a handful

 

Love it! Can't wait to see it finished. Keep pluggin!

 

Here's a couple pics of the new motor

 

Nicer looking motor! Did you get a dyno sheet with it?

 

No dyno sheet. But I bought it from a close friend of my father. Its a ZZ4 GMPP 350 with venolia forged blower pistons and a comp blower cam. It can be run 10% under or over with current pulleys.

 

What 1/4 mile times do you think you'll run?

 

I would like to run mid tens. Or at least I think so. I will have to see how the car feels at that speed. It felt smooth and solid running 12.30 and I have added a little weight since then so it should be good.

 

I would like to see this motor very conservatively put out 500 hp to the wheels.

 

The new engine looks good, hang on when you nail it !

 

I would like to back date one with magnesiums.....your Chuck Moris is awesome.

 

I really really want a pair of vintage Crestline aluminum front runners, but they would set me back a minimum of $2k if I could find them...

 

x2...........

i set the new blower on top of the old motor just to get an quick idea of how it will look and fit.

 

I finally got the new motor installed. Its coming together nicely. started planning out the fuel plumbing and coolant plumbing since everything has to be upgraded. It sure has been more work (and money) than expected. I really hope i dont roll it over within the first couple runs. lol..

 

Man that thing just looks like a hand full with that blower in there !

 

What cage did you put in the car?

 

Man I love your car.......it's perfect. Everything seems to sit right. ......is that an anglia sitting in the garage keeping chuck company?
