Looks like Tony R's signature line.....

Looks great! Congrats! The block almost looks "big" in that first photo. I know you're stoked. I'll look forward to seing that thing on the road this spring.

I noticed the carb is silver. I am used to seeing gold Holleys. Any story behind why this carb is silver, or am I totally out of touch with something (...and that is very likely!).
P.S. I think the starter is robust enough. Just stick it in gear and use it and say you are an electric powered vehicle!!

tu-tone engine?
I just wanted the carb to match the rest of the engine, tu-tone just does not work.....  ...or, uh I dunno.
It takes a big starter...these small blocks have have more then 5:1 compression like them bi-gap-blocks and it takes a bit to spin them up!!

My starter needs a starter on my big block I have a 289 hanging off my bellhousing  Looks just like the pic you posted in the first shot without the camera lense trickery!
P.S. again: I like the silver carb--it's different. |

Sounds like you're compensating. See Dr. Tony. |

I confess, I am compensating.  This high compression/high cubic inch stuff is a world without compromise, and if we need to use a small block as a starter motor, we will FIND A WAY. |
