technically there was never a motor show in the movie so there is no “wrong” motor. most of the stunt cars has small blocks just like my car.

This is true. It just has to have nitrous. LoL. Judging by the movie car we are talking maybe 350whp and a 200 shot! I suggest that a 32 valve Mach 1 drive train finds its way in there. They sound like expensive pornography

in order to put a modular motor in there id have to cut the shock towers and buy a whole new suspension setup. no thanks, theres nothing wrong with a small block stroker.

Also spent some time getting the hood pins aligned better, they were shifting the hood over to the right,its much better but I will prob play with it some more to get it perfect. I also need to find/make longer lanyards.

Got most of the interior buttoned up this afternoon. I have to install the seats and get the door/glass done then I can put the door panels on.

First thing I did was remove the huge simpson logos on the lap belts. Its much cleaner without them and looks more factory.
