Factory roller block, crank, rods, Performer RPM heads, roller rockers are 1.6, Air Gap intake, Edelbrock water pump, Holley 650 vacuum secondary, E303 cam, Edelbrock mechanical fuel pump, FRPP 7 quart pan, Melling oil pump, ARP distributor shaft, MSD Digital box and distributor, 130 amp alt, custom balancer, ASP pulleys, I did custom brackets in my shop to lower the accessories way down. Fluidyne radiator, Contour fans, custom controller, custom upper hose, fittings, etc. I installed a new tank, bent new copper/nickel lines and ran on the driver side, switched to ptfe flexible braided up front to connect to the pump. Exhaust: FRPP ceramic shorties, Bassani stainless off road X, Walker Dynomax stainless mufflers and tailpipes. Driveline: FRPP billet steel flywheel, clutch, Lakewood b/h, custom fork, MM cable and quadrant, TR3550 trans with MGW shifter, custom length (for setback) aluminum driveshaft.
