man you must have a nice paying job with all these LS build ups you have on here, all those parts for the 57 must add up to a pretty penny as well eh? I was watching your vids a few months back with the 55 wagon..why did you sell it??
@vans1107 Like you pointed out these builds cost lots of money and I really wanted this 57 after I found it so I bought the 57 and to pay for it I sold the 55 wagon. Your right though the parts for this thing cost a ton as well as the LS drivetrain.
@cAlvis165 Thanks, yeah I've got a build thread on Trifive com, check it out! It under projects, and called My 1957 Bel Air 2 Door Sedan Restoration by Matt*
@kalvinsr Didn't want to spend a ton on the intake as this isn't an all out performance build as of yet. I may build up the engine a bit add cam/heads or something. Not sure yet.
