It is an RB based 451 , nothing out of this world but has been one of my favorites . comp cams solid roller , eagle crank & rods , -1 heads 1050 dominator . 727 with Griner brake , 513 gears . like several others I am trying to stay over the 6:40 break in et . I do run 125 lb of ballist in the trunk which helps . Just a very reliable set up . Thanks for checking this out . Gary

I think that black ballast is greatly helping those wheelies.......

Great looking ride! Also it is great to have a car that is timeless, it will never go out of style, only get more popular.
