    Chevelle's Scream American Muscle....nothing like a big block 4 speed setup as well. I own 3 '70 versions right now..a cranberry red,cortez silver and mist green with plans to build a shadow gray and a fathom blue as well. Takes alot of time and patience to build but they are worth it in the end.

I’m not made of money, so I know that I’m at least a couple of years away from completing the project, but these videos show me that what I’m working so hard to accomplish is well worth the time and money I’m putting into it.

    Lucky me I have one. Also back in 87 I worked for a Chevy dealer. I bought a factory cowl induction hood with the flapper door and hood pin cut out. It had been stored in the upper attic storage of the dealership parts department since the 70s. It’s in the EPD black coating. Still have it today and never been mounted.

    502 just a mild build. Probably around 535+hp. The ones like small block LS. Which i do too. You can get heavy mod a 502 with twin turbos 3 - 6k hp. Depends how crazy you go. Big displacement easy power. highest Big Block power on rails dragsters 12k plus hp. Specially engines do 3 secs in quarter of mile over 300mph.

    Unlike most I’m not a big fan of the ‘68-72 Chevelles (I prefer the ‘66-67 body style) but this car appears to be very well done. Thanks Shawn.
