Hey mate, sweet ride. Sounds awesome. Do those gear drives get annoying when your cruising. I drive my Centura from Sydney to Albury for Chryslers on the Murray and various other shows and don't want to regret fitting them and wasting my coin.

Its most noticeable at idle, while your driving the exhaust note drowns everything else out. Im actually thinking about putting a chain back in it because there is a lot of slop or play between the gear teeth, which is leading me to thing that the valve timing is all over the place. Still waiting to get it on a dyno.

what size holley are you running .may i ask a silly question does the manifold get hot when the car isnt moving

[VC2NV]

I think from memory it was somewhere around the 650 cfm mark but was never quite sure. The previous owner of the carb rubbed most of the markings off so I couldnt decipher the code. And yes due to the shape of these particular extractors the manifold got hot at idle.

There are a set of webers on the car now, which tamed the whole engine down quite a bit. Despite this Ive since changed to a significantly smaller, hydraulic cam, due to the old one stripping along with breaking several valve springs all caused by a dodgy engine builder not mentioning any names (Pentastar Parts & Restorations)

Beaut car! Perfect exhaust note, just brilliant! was just wondering, what gear drive did you use? is it a glimer or other brand? and approximately what power did this engine make? hope you don't mind me asking, it's just i want to figure out how much i can work 1 for p's. cheers.
