My 1967 Firebird (Updates)
Howdy, been a member for a while just haven't updated in a long time.
She was originally a 1967 Firebird 326 Auto, well that’s all changed. I started doing some suspension work on it back in 2014 I realized the car was not as solid as it looked. At least not for my liking and the whole scope of the build changed.
Currently have my car on a chassis jig to replace almost every panel except the skeletal structure and firewall. I’m doing all the work myself so it’s taking a good bit of time but at the end of the day I’ll have built my own car.
New motor is a 12.5:1 pump gas 408 that is currently under construction. Callies Compstar crank, Callies rods, custom Diamond pistons Texas Speed 2.5 ported 243’s custom camshaft similar to a GM ASA cam, a worked over Edelbrock super victor, Carb and GMPP distributor set up. No major power goals, I’m not trying to break records, I’m just trying to build a very reliable motor for road racing. A few other little trick items in the motor but they dont really do enough to mention.
Many updates to come
