Projects F.E.D. Build, Y not a Y-Block

Hey Rocky, I haven't seen any new pix of your C/GD. Do you have a build thread going? I see Carls car is coming along.

 

A little more work today. The cowl is done and the trailer is ready for paint. May 22nd is coming fast but I will be there.

 

Awesome build and really like the Y block treatment you selected to run with.

 

You guys are on fire! I haven't been able to even look at our car for a couple of weeks but I haven't given up hope!

 

Painted the trailer tonight, now it's black.

 

Finally had some time to check this out... Awesome!!! Watched the start-up video a couple times - man it souns great!


Keep it going and good luck!

Good to see this project coming along. Really nice work here. Thanks for posting.

 

cool

 

COOL!!! I can't believe I didn't see this thread earlier. I took mine out last weekend and once again I was reminded why I love an F.E.D. so much!
Great Job!

 

Sorry Tim for the delay in answering, we don't run any water at all. Lippy

 

How have I missed this thread so far?!?!
Awesome!!!
That Y sounds realllllyyyyy crisp!
Nice!

 

Tim, you have a blower manifold for that Y-block? Lippy

 

No! But I would like one. After I recover from the cost of building the chassis I think stuffing the engine is in order, after all it is certified to 7.50 so I might as well try to make it.

 

OK! the car is home now and my niece Mika had to try it on for size.


It's put to bed for now, tomorrow the finish work begins.

 

Todays work! I'm tired and going to bed.






give me a beer!

 

I love it, building it like it was the mid 60's TIM! The locals must love you

 

Waiting to see big black lines in front of the house....then see the locals smile

Great progress, job well done,

If you only knew.

 

Lookin good Tim !

 

Thank you! It's almost there!

 

Awesome car and build thread. Love the Y block.
Thanks for sharing and have a great time on the 22nd.

 

Tim;THAT dragster is TOO KOOL!!! If I tried painting outside here in Camarillo,they would probably arrest me!!! If I wasn't racing that weekend I would deffinatly be there to watch that digger make a pass! ROY.

 

I absolutely love the build! I wish I knew half the crap you've forgotten! I've followed the build a little over on Y Blocks Forever Forum!

 

Tim, Now that is one mighty fine HOT ROD ! Would love to be at the Drags for your first full pass !

 

Started assembly tonight. Got the rear end together and in the chassis. One more job down, still a bunch to go.

 

A 2x4 gantry. You're a braver man than I Gunga Din.

 

Very nice, looking forward to the finished build pictures.

 

Can't wait to see it finished.

 

With no engine or trans. the chassis weighs next to nothing, don't worry it will have more support as it gains weight.

 

OK! Got the engine in yesterday, now just have a few things to button up and it's ready to run. 22nd is still two weeks away but next weekend will be filled with "Dry Lakes" activity.
