    Thanks guys,I got the 235 running but it smoked bad.So you know what that means,I rebuilt it with a Patricks cam,fenton intake, dual carbs,headers with 3'' exhaust. A t5 5 speed.57 rear end with 336 gears. I went with Fatman dropped uprights and 3'' front springs. The rear is Posies 5'' super glides.I'm finishing up my wiring and interior now. Some people who don't understand freakout when I tell them it's almost finish and that I will never paint it.I have a bad ass video of it cutting up but can't figure out how to post it.I'll keep trying.
