Trying to get out of Lurking

Nice!! Tell us more! That motor looks like it's been warmed up a bit :bigthumb:
 
Yeah, motor has a little huffer on it.
454 with a 177 blower. Stainless marine manifolds with GIL risers. All MSD ignition and external Fuel Pump. It has a Nickerson tuned 850 DP on top. Not the most fuel "efficient" set up but it jams along. I am putting k planes on it this year and possibly single ram external steering. Next year I will more than likely go to a 502 low compression motor and put the huffer on that. I love have the blower, I dont think I would ever go back to NA.
 
Thats nice, clean rigging on the engine & under the hatch. :thumb: Did you do that yourself? Also, I didnt see any mufflers, I'll bet that thing sounds killer @ about 4000 rpms.
