That's the motor. Let's just say there is a disagreement over the dominator. The brand new unit was built by a well respected West Coast carburetor guy.
The headers pictured above are 2 1/8 w/4" collector which is 15" long. Not in the picture is a complete Aeromotive evac system (from Bill Creech). Should now be well north of 700hp.

That's gonna be one BAD A$$ when it's finished! What color are you going to paint it? Can't wait to see the finished product.

If you can't wait to see it finished imagine how I feel!

Thanks for looking

Yep, there is about a two foot section of original frame left in the engine compartment. You see it tied in via the tube coming thru the firewall, what you don't see is the rear portion of that original frame has a butt plate and tubing running back to tie it in also.
