Very nice indeed, what Procharger do you have (I'm looking to supercharge my next engine), and what motor are you running?

Sorry, been away for a while. The stripes are a BMW metallic Grey I can find out which one. They are literally just applied with a spray can so don't let the photo's fool you.

Thanks its the stock 77 dash. It's a little more warp round than the 78,79, dash but you can get a similar look with the ally fascia for your year. I got mine from a NastyZ28 member on Ebay. If you can bend and cut aluminium sheet then you can make them at home.

Hi, the engine was a stock GM blocked 355 SBC. Initially it had AFR 195 heads. Later AFR 195 comps with larger 2.08 valves and more CNC porting. I could definitely feel the difference. The Procharger was an F1C which has 1225hp capability. I had the 3.55 pulley so I guess give or take 1000hp at the crank.....great fun!!!

As far as the music goes, the more obscure the less chance of Youtube bitching about copyright. LOL!

I removed that engine whilst it was still good and will sell it complete with the killer 575hp AFR heads. I now have a Dart 406 SBC Little M with AFR 235 heads. Should be good for 750hp N/A and 1500 - 2000hp with a pair of F1C Prochargers....

Here's some twin blower footage complete with "dodgy sound tracks" LOL!!!!
