looks real good

Looks awesome but your rims aren't cobras. They are bullitts. Just thought i'd clarify.

Oh and wouldnt a 500cfm carb be choking that 302 a little bit? I thought 289s and 302s usually had 600+ on them? I also noticed you had a bench front seat, was that stock or did you buy it?

slickman · 02-25-2006, 09:14 PM

Yup, you're right... My screw up.

No, it's a common misconception that 600+ cfm carbs should be used on stock 302's. The 500 is just right for his application.

Sorry, missed you're one question. The bench seat is stock and my 66 came with that option.. Very rare..

Yep, back in those days, drive-in movies were in vogue. Can't get much lovin' in a bucket seat.
