SCCA car! I'd hate to say it, but small block that sumbitch and tie it up with a cage!
My 1958 Mamiya can beat up whatever camera you just wasted your money on.

Well after lots of reading that maybe it, from everything that I found you can't keep the A/C heater with a buick transplant. I don't know if this is because they used buick heads or if it's the same with the TTA heads...So maybe a turbo SSC

Jim, that sounds real cool. Kind of makes me laugh though, because you seem to have as many project cars as Bryan, but not enough time.   :rofl;  Good luck with the project. Are you still working on your wife's Vette?
