mrm Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I have never built a single Street Machine or Pro Street model in my life but watching your progress makes me want to give it a try. Nothing like all that rubber under there behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakshow12 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I made an air gap for a 440 dodge by using the high rise intake from a nascar chevy engine and cutting away everything but the runners. Then I used the valley pan from a 69 charger and a bit of styrene to square everything up. Easy breezy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
