Kirkham 289 Street Car

[Towmaster]

Why not go for the 4.125 Dart block, takes it out to 363 cubes with the same deck height / stroke? No substitute for cubic inches..... And it is still just under 6 litres.
There are quite a few of those 363 (ish) engines in Cobras here. Same price....

Restocreations, yes that is my car and my proof reading is not so good.Meaning i am excited about the car not exited.
The engine is nearly complete and is a 347 stroker.Initially we are fitting the replica intake manifold from tony branda with COBRA cast into it and the tall COBRA rocker covers.Carburetor will be a 650 holley double pumper.I do not want a vac secondary coming in with a rush of power in a light car.I also own a 1970 XYGT falcon with a 400 horsepower 351 cleveland and the dp on that is fine.
The engine is to be painted black and Kirkham's will manufacture a full exhaust system as per original.
Also fitting the pure wool carpet.
Don't know when the car will be in Australia, but would presume sometime in middle of May.
I will keep the forum informed of progress.
Thanks everyone for your interest.
