    1967 SS Chevelle Coupe, 468 CID 12.5 to 1 piston competition cams solid lift. Pete Jackson gears. MSD ignition. Holley 1050 Dominator on a Edlebrock intake. Muncie Rock Crusher 4 Speed. Line lock button on a V Gate shifter. Moroso 12 bolt brut strength possi rear with Morrison axels. 4.10 gear ratio. 10.5 x 28 Nitto Street slicks. Competition ladder bar system. Interior is original light blue bucket seats. Was My uncles car back in 1979. I’ve had it since my 10 th grade at Odessa High school days. Poor car was a mess when I obtained it. It’s come a long way since those days. My uncle was only making it into a straight Drag Race Car at Penwell Raceway. I got it back running again after finding a pare of heads for it. Took Auto Mechanics in 10 th grade and we worked on it to get it running. Raced at the Drags back then. We cruised Odessa back in the day. Car has alot of history to tell. Lol

    Future Plans

    I did finally get some bodywork done and a paint job back in 1995. But now it’s time for another one. Maybe soon. My uncle had a 363 in it but I had to drop a new engine in it cause an intake valve decided to drop. Sadly. Bought this new motor from Donnel Gains @ G&G Machine. It made 635 HP on the bench. I’ve since had alot of wants. Soon it will have disk brakes. The car would go but stopping was an issue. So soon that will happen. Tubular A arms are going in with new springs etc. sway bars and all new rubber for the front end and body mount. About to get away from the solid life cam! I’m done with adjusting those dudes. Do we have a new cam and lifter system set up for that. Hydraulic Roller made by competition cams big mother thumper fitted with a new Edelbrock intake manifold Victor JR. #2904 for oval port heads. Then we are going with a FAST THROTTLE BODY INJECTION SYSTEM.. this should help take care of any issues that we may need to worry about without having to change orifices in the dominator anymore. Possibly gaining some horses and getting the engines optimum amount of horsepower. We can get maybe adding a little bit of fuel mileage for street driving!! I’m going back with stock slotted rims for the 67 Chevelle although we’re putting 10 inch wide slotted wheels on the back, with a 5 1/2 backspace. Tires fit nice and snug under there!!! we haven’t made all these changes yet but hope soon we can get my “baby blew” running!!!
