Hey Everyone!
I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Curtis and I own a 1974 Corvette. This is my first post here. I've spent a number of years over at CF and Digital Corvettes. My good friend Durango_Boy suggested that I come over here and see what this was all about. I've read through a number of posts here and there seems to be a lot of knowledgeable people who like having fun with their cars. I look forward to being apart of this forum. Enough about me. Here's some pictures of the star of the show.   Curtis1974 |

That shine is so deep I'm gonna need a snorkel.
Nice setup. Is that a Holley or Demon? What's hiding underneath the heads and intake? |

I'll answer this one. That's a 1996 Vortec 350, bored to a 355, with RHS Vortec heads, full roller, 9.75:1 static CR, aggressive cam, and lots of custom touches. The carb is just an Edelbrock 1406. Simple, and runs great with little to no tuning at all all year round. Built and installed in my garage. [IMG]http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m242/durango_boy/CIMG0442.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m242/durango_boy/Vortec09.jpg[/IMG] A few things were changed after the pics were taken. The choke wiring was loomed, a different PCV tube setup was used that gave it a cleaner look, and a few other odds and ends and details were addressed. |

What a gorgeous car. Love the cragars and side pipes. If I ever get a C3 I want it to look like that!

Yes, and very hard to lay down right. It looks great in the sunlight in person. Pictures don't do it justice. |
