Just another new guy.
« on: March 13, 2016 - 11:29:42 PM »
Hey folks. Came across C-C while looking for info for my motor build. Figured Id join to have another area to discuss things. While I don't have a Cuda or Challenger, I hope you will forgive me.
My car is a 1940 Chrysler Windsor with a 383/727/8.75" and the motor is currently at a shop getting prepped to be built  :swear:

Sorry for the size of the pic when the car was still green, only one I had on my computer.
She's grey now. I cut the firewall out and built a new one out of 10ga sheet. Moved the motor back 6" from where it was with the original firewall.

Cool car; looks like one of the business mans coupes with one of those trunks you could load 4 bodies into and still shut the deck!  :cheers:

Thanks. Yeah, it has a huge trunk, for now. I plan on building a new frame since it is sitting on the original. 76 years has left the frame with some wavy spots from jacks and I had to notch it for my oil pump. It will be replaced with either a custom built frame or maybe a Dakota frame that gets boxed.

Here is how she sounded before I yanked the motor. I built my own headers going into side pipes that run under my steps.
