Pretty wild!
but as someone who tries to go fast using mostly old parts, I don't really get the whole concept of using one or two old parts, covered with layers of modernity. I guess I have a bad attitude.

I love the blend of modern with vintage. Both ways. EFI on 50/60's engines and carbs on Gen3 hemi's! haha

Yes, I realize that's a race hemi, but I have always had a soft spot for injectors like this

I wonder where they found the Poly finned valve covers - don't think I've ever seen a set, even in the olden days (I was there). Chrome but not finned aluminum.
Very cool!

Are those production heads?Comment

Yes. Ported production heads. Reportedly flow in the 330cfm range. (!) Looks like they added a flange to the exhaust ports to use a bbc flanged header or something.Life is short. Be a do'er and not a shoulda done'er.

I took a look at 2 yesterday, the Packard and the Poly 318. Both were pretty damn cool. I was really digging the 318 with coil on plug and injectors with stacks....nice balance of old and new....the Packard engine sounded cool/
If you can leave two black stripes from the exit of one corner to the braking zone of the next, you have enough horsepower. - Mark DonohueComment

Joe - Any pics of the Packard? I have a soft spot for them related to a childhood thing.. I'd love to see what they did with it.

THANKS!! That shared center exhaust port probably isn't ideal but I know they were torque monsters back in the day. And I think it's a good lookin' devil.

Interesting, no J-2 Olds or 331 Cadillac. I assume the Pontiac was not allowed.Comment
