Nice job on the tailights.

 

thanks man. thought they came out ok for my first time.

anyone wants to photoshop it with a 4in. chop feel free.

 

Very cool tailights and great car.

More motivation on keeping the flat-6;

o i am rebuilding the flat six all og stock right now.

 

I see the metal triangles. Neat. Did ya know that if ya keep your old razorblades in the carbs they will never get dull?

 

What kind of power do you expect to get out of that motor?

 

I am running a 56 230, 30over 50 total off the head and deck, dual carters on a fenton intake, stock cam, single exhaust with 2 in Id pipe and a dynomax turbo flow, It pulled 134 rear wheel Hp on a chassis dyno. Which is 10 more than the factory flywheel rating. Probably pick up a couple more with dual exhaust, but don't need the extra plumbing right now. Compression and breathig are the keys. If you are gonna change to 12V you can easily modify a slant 6 electronic dizzy and run the MOPAR electronic ign system.

 

here are some updates.

 

i also lowered the rear about 2in. and im going to go another 2in soon.

 

Very sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet body there. Were I to do mine over Iwould still have done the 318 like I did, The flathead is a great mill. but parts on a trip is kind of if,y at best. but A friend don has lots of miles so its a crap shoot. there sure good looking motors thu.

 

Man that is a nice intake
