Fred - Yea, I think I am pretty close to guessing correct also. Look at my gallery and you will see my pipes have no mufflers - just straight though 4 inch tubes. They were not built by Lone Star. Your car is nice - hope to meet you sometime. I appreciate your responce.

Michael - Unfortunately I don't know the cam grind since I did not build the motor. It has an obviuos lope, but nothing radical. I am currently trying to put a build book together for everying on the car. The carb is a 750 Barry Grant Speed Demon with mechanical secondaries and no choke. Intake is a Edelbrock Performer 390. The ignition is MSD 6 Al with 5800 RPM chip limiter and MSD Blaster Coil.

I will probably drive it this summer as is and just enjoy it. I won't be racing it competively or anything. So far I haven't needed any more horse power than I have to stay ahead of anything around here - at least from light to light! I will be looking into what I can do to the 428 in the future to beaf it up, or I have even been reading about the Genesis 427s.

The exploration of options is as much fun as anything - these cars are a blast!
