Re: UBER SS

I forgot to post pics of the installed radiator and cooling fans. Fits well and looks great.





Installed a new Stewart Stage II cooling pump this weekend.
Very well made and not that expensive as compared to others (Edelbrock ).

Took a quick look inside and found a nice cast impeller instead of stamped steel.

Re: UBER SS

If you're having cooling issues, wonder if it might help to have a shroud for the rad/fan?

Looking badass though man!

Re: UBER SS

The radiator and fans fixed the heat soaking which occurred while driving at cruise/higher speeds. I'm seeing roughly 3400-3500rpm at 60-65mph.
Those are the Zirgo Ultra Performance ZFU14S fans. They pull almost 2800cfm each.

The pump was an original GM cast iron unit which is under driven a good bit and didn't pump enough at idle, causing heat creep sitting in traffic.

So the rad/fans fixed the cruise temps issue and the pump fixed the extended idle issue while shaving a few pounds off the front of the car.

Whoa, sexy.

I'm still for an LSx and a set of big hairdryers though.

It was a hard decision not to go that route. My biggest concern was about adding weight to the front end (turbos, heavy manifolds, intercooler, piping, etc.). Right now I'm at 56/44 split to the front. Any more weight that shifts the balance to a heavier front end would only make it harder to hook up. I've seen several LS swaps into muscle cars and they just look out of place so I decided to stay BBC. Nothing sounds like big cubes with a big cam.

But, if I ever get the itch, there's enough nice parts in this one that dropping the compression ratio and a cam change could allow for some serious powa!

Imagine a 582 on boost!!

Re: UBER SS

Great choice. Nothing can beat a bbc with a big old cam. Plus n/a motors are pretty reliable and constant. Throw some spray on it and shit gets real. That thing should be in the 9s on motor if you can set up right. Please post a video when you get it running.

Hook at the line hard enough and you'll get all the weight on the rear tires.

That's what I'm hoping for. I'll post vids as they become available.

That must happen first,.......

4-link set-ups like a 55/45 split at minimum, so it's already a little nose heavy. Hoping those aluminum heads pull a little off the front weight, normally they would knock off about 70lbs, but that Dart block throws some back in the mix.
