The 496 is coming out for a solid roller and Brodix heads upgrade...a "more power Scotty" thing.
On the stand right now is a fresh, mild, all forged 396 +.060" (408) thats going into the '67 which is being detuned. Less stall (3500 to a 2200) and rear gear (4.11 to a 3.31) along with the addition of a Vintage AC system. Then I'll find a new project for the 496... ![]() But I will be at the Acworth cruise on Saturday with a few just off the plane Irish friends.

Walked out and looked at it. Waiting for my clutch fan to come back from being restored.

Adjusted valves, tightened header bolts, tweaked on the carb a little...and DROVE it.
![]() The 496 feels like it's gained 50hp in this cooler weather...

I remember the first time I saw flash's 72 vert. When he told me how much that car was driven I was just blown away. It is beautiful.
