Hi '68 Beaumont from Delta BC


Hey everyone I'm from Delta BC recently new member here found it looking around and sure glad I did lots of great stuff on here well here's my car and what its about.. 68 Hardtop , I have owned the car for 12 years (First car I bought at 17 yrs old) and have have done alot of running gear playing around with it, now In the last couple years done some rust repair and have had the body work finished, and waiting for paint now.

It has a 377 stroker with a solid lift cam done all up nice, th350 with a 3500 stall and shiftkit, 12 bolt with 4:56 gears eaton posi. The car runs in the mid 12's and goes really good on the street, nice and loud get lots of looks. Thanks guys.

Kevin

RE: HI from Delta BC


YA its a screamer alright on Sat. I had her up to around 7300 RPM in first and it was still pulling strong I've had it pull close to 8000 it gets up there quick with the gears I'm running. I bought the bottom end off a friend and he had for a while so it wasn't a kit it's built from scratch, 12 to 1 domed pistons, polished rod's all built strong then I have to run the open chamber heads so I can get away with 94 octane gas.
