Bromley's Corvettes Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Just finished a big project on a 73. The customer had already bought a 406c.i engine with AFR heads and roller cam and forged bottom end and he wanted me to install it and a 4-speed he had. Ended up changing cam to a bigger solid roller 605 lift 260 and 270 at 50 on a 108 Also rebuilt the whole front end and brake system and rear end and up graded to a 4.11 and heavy duty u-joints and drive shaft and headers and 3in x-pipe exhaust system and S.F.I clutch and bell housing and fly wheel. Alum rad and elec fans and elec fuel pump and on and on and on lol. So 20k later its ready for him to pick up tomorrow morning:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bromley's Corvettes Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 Thanks I am glad its done it kinda dragged on. Customer kept wanting to up grade things and kept finding more wrong with the car so just keep replacing and fixing and rebuilding and up grading tell there was nothing left to fix lol. It turned out very well. C-3 with a 406c.i engine and a 4-speed and 4.11 rear end is a good combo:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
