----Chandler,,,There are a few (maybe more than a few) loose wingnuts on this site. As much attention as your fine 64 will attract,,,be ready for a few more wise cracks. As for me, I just want to know a bit more about that motors internals as it looks as if it can definetly haul the bacon!!!......Bill S

Thanks.
The block is a 10.2 deck Merlin. 4.5 bore and 4.25 stroke. Flat top JE pistons on 6.800 rods. Cam is a custom roller designed by Kirk Jager and Chris Straub and ground at Bullet, .720 lift. And I promise the following is true,( I get accused of running painted aluminum heads..lol ), the heads are stock LS6 cast iron. The intake is a Brodix HVH with a Pro Systems 1100 Dominator. The reason I point this out about the heads is because the motor made 704 h.p. on pump gas. We tricked the heads into thinking the exhaust flow is better than it really is, using the cam profile. The first time I had the motor together it made 670 h.p., but I had a ring problem and took it back down. By changing the rings and rehoning the block, it picked up 34 h.p. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: olredalert</div><div class="ubbcode-body">----Chandler,,,There are a few (maybe more than a few) loose wingnuts on this site.

Here is an old interior shot. Since this picture was taken, I've restored and installed a Hurst Ram Rod shifter.

Rear view. I removed the trim piece in the middle of the trunk and added the tailight delete plates.

It's a Jerico 4-speed. They have no syncronizers, etc, like a standard production transmission and the gears are massive. It's a road race version from a Cup car. Makes a rock crusher sound like a M-20. I don't know if I can load a video or not, but my son recorded a few seconds of us pulling onto the interstate with a cell phone. Let me see if it will load, you can hear the transmission.

I tried to upload the video. The video is a MVI ?
It wouldn't accept it. I'm not very computer savvy. Does anyone know how it can be uploaded? Thanks
