| I guess i coulda put this in a build thread but... oh well. I just wanted to share some pics of the latest creation to come out of our shop @ home. My dad did the majority of the fab work. I had most of the "ideas". But anyways lemme know what ya'll think. She ain't quite done yet still gotta put some glass & door panels (of sorts) in her and then she'll be ready for the street! It is a 1930 Marmon "Roosevelt" model, 4 door ( not too many of 'em made) We started with just the body, everything else was built in our shop. The motor is a tall deck 427 Chevy Big Block 10.5 -1 motor, runnin on pump gas, with ALOT OF GOODIES INSIDE, dynoed @ 720 - 728 HP @ the flywheel ( fluctuates with minor tweaking) Anyways here's the pics!

| Ican tell you one thing it will make crazy horsepower depending on how much you wanna do to it.
We previously had this motor on an airboat but it was a 15.0 / 1 motor and ran only on CAM II, it turned out just over 870HP @ the flywheel.
We went through it for the car and put 10.5 / 1 pistons and a different cam in it, now it does 720 + HP depending on fuel. | |

NICE!. I remember seing some pics of it a while back that u posted. I'm not sure what total ci. is on this one. But in this car that might weigh 2400 lbs its F'IN NASTY! And it has a mini spool in it so its like a friggin rocket whichever way its pointed. It was bad ass on the boat too. we raced it a few times and on a 16 ft fiberglass boat w/stainless riggin & 30 gals of fuel they clocked it @ 58 mph in 150 ft. That might not sound fast but for a boat that heavy & in that short of a distance its haulin ass! I bet that Camaro is a handful too! | |
