The Offical Jako92 Progress Thread

[jako92]

This is the first day that i bought the car completly stock with only 53,000 miles on it.

This is the blown 347...little to much spary

This is the new color im going with it sunset orange off a WS.6

 

[Cobra912]

wow the block is kaput! crazy!

I like the orange. Something about your car though everytime it gets voted for FOTM. post up some new pics - maybe some side profile shots of the engine. Do you have any with a air cleaner on top? And.......my 2 cents Love the car but the chrome ponies gotta go.

Thanks for postin the pics! keep em comin!

What's with the chevy dizzy?

 

[BlownFiveLiter]

HEI distributors make for an easy ignition system when doing a carb swap.

 

[jako92]

[Chuckman]

HOLY ****!

ive seen some carnage pics of blocks cracked down the middle before, but thats the first time ive seen every single main bearing support broken like that. dayum.

car looks good though, gives me inspiration to make mine even half as mean as yours seems to be.

 

[jako92]

ya that was a shocker right at the top end of the race it blew....nitrous is a bitch some times

 

[riceslayer302]

love it man, your bay reminds me alot of mine, did you weld the holes or bondo over them?

 

[skunk21]

Awsome job, I can't wait to see the finished product .

 

[jako92]

i welded them all and then put filler over it to level everything out

 

[riceslayer302]

yeah thats the same thing i did, yours came out awesome

 

[jako92]

[riceslayer302]

[bynummustang]

Each of you have got me to work on my car again. I'm in the process of pulling the dash out, and the EFI harness and computer. Its more work than I thought.

 

[SVT32VDOHC]

Did you fill that rot hole in the passenger side frame rail by the shock tower with bondo or did you cut it all out and put new metal there?
