Not sure which B1's they are to be honest Bri, we've been given so much info about the car I've forgotten, I know they flowed in excess of 420cfm on the intake apparently that's good enough for 1000hp+ so would think either originals or more likely the TS's but we don't know much about B1 heads as we've always had indy's, the motor was built by Hauser and made 802 ld-ft of torque at 4700 revs and 812 hp at 5800, they stopped there as it had already gone way above what they were looking for so were working on it probably been 850ish hp it was climbing quite nicely upto 5800 so see no reason why not

Wow! What a belter!

I agree though, it's too nice a car to twist with a motor like that, but a toodle or two up the strip first has to be the order of the day.

Congratulations Marc, I'm F8 Green with envy mate! :thumbright:

Yes it's on pump gas, we'll probably runit up the strip on a mix with race fuel though, for safety, and we have a full set of wheels with slicks and skinnys for track action, they are not proper red lines on the car there a radial, lookalike

TS only fit on Wayne County type Blocks or after market Blocks. Most likely B1 originals or even the B1 moved Centerline models.
Virtually or hardly anything from B1's are interchangeable with TS's. If you got a picture, could probably tell straight away.

Nothing wrong with B1 originals or the moved Centerline model, both produce plenty of get up & go :thumbright:

Ah ok Mark i see your point, and Freds, more likely originals then, Had the car running last night, can't believe how well it idled instantly, it was at 600 revs ticking over within 10 seconds of starting it,

Must really say a huge thank you to Dean for doing us such a great deal, being so patient and more importantly building a stunning car :thumbright:
