Well here it goes, I bought this car when I was 18, I'm 21 now. The paint was pretty shady looking and me being the master painter I decided to tear it apart, much like everything I own, now with power tour coming up i want to take this thing, and i love to finish a project with like no time. SOO i plan on posting my progress here, i'll try to update it everyday with pictures, and injury reports, lol. So here are the facts:
1970 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe
Original motor L46 350 ci with some minor mods done, approx 370 hp
Tremec T56 6 Speed Trans, 4:11 gears
Lowered on VBP Suspension, Chassis Stiffened
255/50/17 Nitto NT450 Front - 275/50/17 Nitto NT450 Rear on WV Rallys
Chambered Pipe exhaust out the back, really loud.
I still have some bodywork left on the car but not much, the whole car still needs primer, final block sanding and then paint of course, Then the updated intake and carb. I'll be using all DuPont on the car as far as paint goes, mostly ChromaPremier, nothing but good luck with the stuff. Anyway bla bla bla...
I need intake and carb suggestions, the motor isn't too radical at all, but i would like to update the air fuel delivery setup. Right now it has the original stock Q jet, with a super old Edelbrock Performer Intake. I know the motor would spin a little farther with something new. So let me know what you think and I'll keep you all updated. Wish me luck I have less than a month to complete it all, glad I'm in between jobs right now, lots of free time!
