Looks good. What kind of paint did you use on it. Did you use a spray gun or rattle can? I'm thinking about doing that to my 1951 Chevy.

Niiiiiice regal. I had a white one in high school, just like that, except it was a 231/v6 car. That thing rode like a caddy though. I suppose yours rides more like a 'vette though. It looks tough as shit man....cool car. Call me a tool, but I think it would look sick with a set of side pipes. :D

What trans and rear? What is inside that sbc?

nahhhh no sidepipes for me lol

it has the stock 7.5 rear in it right now and i have a set of 3.42 gears for it im gonna try to get installed this weekend maybe

the motor is just a 350 bored .030 over with hyper flattops, a comp cams 280/.480 cam, stock bottom end, a set of 305 heads, weiand team G intake with 2" raised plenum and a 650 dbl pmpr holley and a set of flowtech 1 5/8 headers

tranny is a TH350 with a TCI 3200-3400 stall

ill be happy if it runs low 9's in the 1/8th mile lol but ive had a couple guys on another site tell me they had the same setup and they ran 8.50-8.70 all day long

That 280 magnum is a great cam and in that car, will flat MOVE. Especially with the velocity you get from a set of 305 heads. I'd be scared to hook that thing if I were you....or at least carry a shop vac for the pieces of your 7.5 that are still big enough to pick up. :D I'm not trying to be a smart guy, one of my buds was running a real similar setup in a 80s caprice with stock 7.5 and with one good hammering on street tires no less, blew that thing to smitherines. Be careful. ;)

Cool car man!!!

havent done much in the way of updates but i have driven the car quite a bit and took it to the dragstrip with the 2.41 gears still in it...ran a best of 9.76 in the 1/8 mile...did a gauge swap and was kinda pleased with how it turned out
