Ah... I knew it... The way the intake manifold is design on it, I had thought of LS motor, but I wanted to make sure and asked.

 

the car looks good.. what color are you going with? and custom interior im guessing?

 

probably a real dark blue... havent thought too much about the interior yet

 

Adding a little uniqueness to it:

 

What are you doing for wheels? Looks amazing thu far. Major props to you for the save. I would have dismissed this project long ago.

 

Still not settled on a certain wheel. Got any reccomendations?

 

Well I CAN help. What rear end are you running? 9"? MiniTub? 4 Link?
What size would you want to go? Will you run Air Ride? What color is the car going to be done in?

 

MiniTubbed, no air ride, and a midnight blue. I'm not sure on the wheel sizes. first was the body work, now is the engine. I havent put any thought into the wheels or interior yet.

 

Get a nice clean wheel. A nice 5 star simple design could look really good on this car IMO. I woudl aviod a lot of spoke cause you dont want the attention drawn to the wheels you want it drawn to the car because its going to be amazing looking. May I suggest BMW Carbon Black for the color. Its a very dark blue and almost black. It looks black in dark or very little light and when the sun hits it it look like a very metallic dark blue. If you have not seen it in person I would suggest doing so. I think it would look awesome on the car. Best of luck and the project is SICK.

 

I agree with ^^

We recently did a set for a customer of ours building, a 1969 Camaro as well that is has mini tub and all. We ended up doing 20x13 out back and 18x9.5 upfront. Car looks insane. The rear lips are 6"
