Default Took some new pictures of the car today

It's been over a year since I've taken pictures of the whole car. I snagged some of these into my sig.







These are some Hi-res shots.

It's an older Edelbrock Victor Jr 2-R with the twisted carb mount.

[QUOTE]Very nice, What intake is that.

I have one of those old twist mount Torker 2-0's laying around in the garage. I always thought that was a pretty good design, seemed like it could even things out going into the runners.

Have you tried to fit a L-88 hood over that. I have a L-88 hood and I am going to a Victor Jr. Mine will not fit under my hood and allow enough air to the motor, that is with a drop base and Extreme top. I am going to cut the hood and raise it 2" still trying to retain the L-88 hood look. I will also fabricate a big air box to totally encapcilate the air cleaner.

The L-88 hood fits over it, it's close but it fits. I had the carb flange milled down 1/4".

I don't think they make this intake anymore.
