1967 Coupe. 289 2v 3spd.


new DD. making deposit on the car this afternoon.

already have a list of projects to do.

1.disc conversion
2.T-5
3.04 bullitt wheels
3.New paint.

and voila done.

 

Really? No 4V conversion? Nice looking car, though

 

no need to list that.

i have a 650 holley 4v sitting on my shelf in my garage.

but that wont go on till i get a new intake, ignition, and dual exhaust.

the goal is to make it to DD status. and then i can assure you a 289 that will lay down somwhere in the 13.8-14.2 range. thats my goal.

 

i like the bullitt wheel idea[8D]

 

That's a really, really big carb for that engine, even with intake/exhaust. A 500-550 would suit it much better.

 

im looking to create the same image as your red coupe in your sig.(nice car btw)


my only deviance. its getting painted a dark highland green metallic. with some real deep tint.

i think itll look real sharp.

 

iknow

like i said thats down the road more.

i think itll be to radical for the 289.

but maybe with new cams,ported heads, intake, and raising displacemnt to 302 it might work.


but im still uneasy. my friend(who messes with engines more than i do says it might work)

im willing to bet tho its not going to. one of my friends with a 67 chevy camaro 350 said it was a little to radical for his engine and gave it to me to use on the 351 clevleand. i was going to sell it off to buy a new carb for the 289 and he said it might work after we raise displacment and bump up the cams and intake and such.


im not confident but what do you think. if you stoke it to a 302 and redo all the bolt ons including cam will the 650 work. i dont mind waiting for the build up to put the four barrel on.

 

how much

 

^^^^^my goal is to make somwhere between 300 at the crank. this is a rough idea of where i want to head with this. not necessarily in this order.

-stroke to 302
-True dual(2.5 inch all the way through)
-4v carb
-eldebrock intake
-new valvetrain
-head port and polish
-mild comp cam

 

Just curious, out of the 4 stated up top, Is that the order you will be buying the parts in? or will the all go on at once. Just hate to see you upgrade to a disk kit thats to big to fit under the stocker rims, then gotta wait for more $$. -Jon
