How does the tunnel ram fit under the stock hood? Or is that why it's slightly ajar?

You don't see Q Jets on a T Ram very often. I'm assuming you took the carbs off to get the hood closed.

Any chance this car was out in Olathe, Kansas? I never got a good look but there was a 66-68 fastback sitting under a lean-to for years.

Default Sorry for the delay guys!

Yep, took carbs off to get hood closed. Hood was never cut, ran without. I’m not sure but may have been possible it was in Olathe, KS. Owner passed and not much info from brother.

Engine was locked up so I put PB Blaster and synthetic oil down all intake ports. Sat for a month, then I got it to rotate! Went ahead and pulled the engine out and disassembled, this is what I found:

Original block, crank and rods, all std. uncut.
Aftermarket pop-up pistons ink stamp still visible
69 dated 1970 351 heads with larger valves
Biggest darn Isky cam... .578 lift 312 duration full comp!

Sold the intake, have a dual plane and bought a 650 mechanical secondary Holley and stainless long tube headers( period headers did not survive media blast).

Got some Quadrajets to sell, one is from a 69 Camaro 350.

Progress slowed for home remodel and winter... been gathering parts. More soon!
