Not really Lightning related, but I'm pretty proud of the car and thought some people might enjoy it, so I figured I post it. My brother and I have been hard at work this year, taking his Pro-Street 74 up another notch. The motor and trans was pulled and replaced with a fresh 302, topped of with a 6-71 blower. The entire engine bay was redone, with everything removed and all holes filled, then shot body color. All that remains is the master cylinder. We switched to a set of Jet-Hotted Hooker headers this time around. We also changed the roll cage from a 4 point to a 10 point. All the underhood stuff now resides on a custom plate welded to the roll cage behind the dash, and the whole car was rewired from scratch, getting rid of the miles of junk and dead wires. We then made the custom exhaust with twin oval side tips in front of the wheels. We did lots of other small stuff, but that's the major changes from last time around. Here are some pics I snapped in the shop, they are a little dark, I'll try to take some more outside in the sun....

 

Enjoy!!

 

Lookin good!! Sal, check your email, I sent you some data logged dyno runs from my Wide Band Commander. BTW, this is Tucker Stiles.

 

damn Sal... I didn't know you had this in the stable...
(when does the "other car" "rolling chassis" arrive?)

what are the specs?

weight, hp, expected numbers etc...

 

one question though..

will the exhaust dump water (assuming it has cats) or unburned a/f on the tires, making it slippery?

 

From the words of 'Frank Barone', "Holy Crap!"
That's really neat! Nice Job!

Dude that is sweet!

 

WOW Sal, that thing is crazy looking.

 

Saa-Weet !!!

 

Good job Sal man! That is one sexy bitch.

I so wish we could put those huffers on top of our motors. Or atleast a 201 whipple.

SAL:
What a beautiful job you've done.
It looks like Dr.Steroid got a hold of that
slick pony and worked that old black magic. Mabe this is the BIG GRANDPA to Elenor.

ps..wish you lived closer so you could work on my truck.

 

 

put a 6# lower and a 2.73 diameter upper on that bad boy and see how much boost you can get out of it

 

Sweet!
