  • My 1964 Impala and my 1975 Ironhead

    The impala already has a brand new interior, 327, powerglide, snd so on. I had to replace the valve covers because there was no way to add oil or for the crankcase to breath when i got the car, so when i first picked it up it was blowing oil out of the valve cover gaskets when it got warm. I am fixing to install true lake pipes on it, and in process of blacking the paint out, the 4 different colors of primer just are not appealing at all......but for 1700.00 I stole this car.lol. Especially with the brand new interior.

    The Sporty, needs all new wiring and a front brake, but it runs like a scalded dog. Well worth the 1500.00 I spent on it.

        You could of just installed the OE intake back on it. The original intake had the fill tube.

          Yeah I know, but I didn't have the original intake, and new valve covers are cheaper...lol

                      I'll get some up tonight. I have the front end 2 feet off the ground and the front wheels off, trying to repair this redneck assed exaust system best I can untill my exaust guy gets back from his 2 month european vacation, (asshole). I think I'm going to have the exaust straight 2 1/2 pipe, no mufflers, with 3 hole bell flowers out behind the back wheels, with caps so i can adjust the sound. I was going to run lakes on it, but i was advised by the RD guys to go with the bell flowers instead, same look and function, but they wont be all up in the way.

                      Oh yeah, I'm dropping it 6 inches in the rear and 4 in the front.
