Hello,
I'm new here but have checked in from time to time. I have a 1951 Plymouth and my wife's is a 1954 Desoto both with flat 6's. I also have a project 1931 Ford Model "A" rumble seat coupe that has a 291 Desoto hemi. I chose to build my cars as if they may have been built in the 50's. I drive both the '51 and the '54 alot. I drove the '51 from Charlotte, NC to Las Vegas and back last year for a car show. I do all of my own fabricating and mechanical work. I am learning and teaching myself sheetmetal and body work.
I hope to contribute as much as I can and I know that I will learn an awful lot here. I am a huge fan of different. I do not like to be caught in the mainstream. I truely enjoy inliners!

Cool ride, there, Bloody! They used long intake runners on the old HiPo 413 V8ss for huge amounts of low-end torque; I'd really like to know how your intake set-up works...


Lord, let me live long enough to do all the projects I have planned!

I've been very happy with the entire set-up. It has worked well from completion. It has a signifigant increase in hp enough to slip the clutch which it never did before the intake and headers. For being a stock 90hp 218 it will run at rather high speeds on the highways and hold it's speed...I installed an overdrive from a '54 Plynouth. It's a much more enjoyable car now.
