Hi Guys, just a bit more...I fully appreciate anything to do with a Chrysler motor is a bit ho-hum for FB-EK people, however since this baby will end up in our FB, I will continue. Besides you wont see it until you pop the bonnet...

Here we have the Chrysler small block 360 in a test bed, we want to establish the basics before we trick it up. The compression is good, the previous owners have added a performance dizzy and coil. BONUS.

Starts well, smoke due to a squirt of oil in the cylinders, it soon disappeared... Boy, the sound file was supurb!

Thats it for now
cheers... Graham

The plan is to make it street legal. We have a team with a good history of getting custom cars registered and on the road. I hope this will go well, but nothing is guaranteed of course.

none the less we will keep plugging away.....cheers.

Hi again, here is an update... I promise it will look like an FB when it's finished...

We had to design and make all the brackets and pulleys to hang all the bits and peices off the front of the Chrysler 360 motor. We have a Commodore powersteering pump, Magna Airconditioning, and moved the alternator to a new location.

At the same time try and engineer a connection between the chrysler heater and Magna aircon...piece of art that was

cheers
