Looks like a real stout build Bentley. I like the cam choice, dig how you bought and sold some swap meet stuff to come away with a free SFI balancer (I have that exact unit) and gotta say the tunnel ram is just pure awesome!!!

Keep it coming'

Default The Patient

The Patient:
I have not dug the ole gal out of the shop, yet, this year. With the engine getting close to completion, this will be my next project to extract this car out to where I can work on it and start the transformation. Yes, this is a factory equipped 4 speed and gauge car and that is the original paint except roof and touch ups. So, here it is!

Love it! Do you need a set of vintage headers for it?

Don't feel bad about using a sink trap pipe section for your radiator. That was a great idea!

I used a PVC, 90-degree sewage pipe section for my truck's air filter box. It flows twice the air as the factory, squashed and restricted elbow. And it cost $3 versus the NOS elbow that cost $100 and can't be found anymore. :-)
