Maybe! I know Bill wants to see it. I bought a new 20' trailer two. So maybe I'll bring Ted and the Jalopy so I can pick which one I want to take on the trail!

A 502 in a '55.  Think you'll have enough ooomph there?  :-)

I lied. Its not a 502, but rather a 496. What a piece of junk!

Yes, absolutely junk.  Put it on a pallet at I will send you the .07 cents/lb so I can scrap it.

That would be pretty decent power for my 46 Chevy pickup project.  Curious what sort of cam profile they used in those.  CR is apparently 9:1.

Hey Nate. What's up with this thing?
Your last post in your Stovebolt thread was in November and here in February.
What are you up to?
Did you find a new love? ;)

Nope, still been working on it. I took it drag racing on May 1 and did 23 passes averaging 18 sec.

Tomorrow, this bad boy is going in, a 383 stroker crate engine with 430 HP and 475 ft-lbs of torque. Also have a built turbo 400 to go behind it.

Here it is in the 55!



And I started to stretch the bed. How cool will a 9ft step side be?  :)

Nate, did they give you any info on the cam profile and CR with the 383?  Didn't find a thing on Summit's site.

The cr is 10:1. No idea on the cam. It has a full roller valve train too.

Seriously though,  nice build! ,  watching with interest!

I haven't posted recently about the 55 chevy. I almost got the bed all done. I just need some new fenders and paint to match the cab. I made some custom length steps for it after I stretched the bed. I used a long bed and short bed step. I had to cut them at the angle to get the length right. I also got some new tires for it, 34 x 10.50 TSLs. They fit the truck well and have the vintage look to it.
