Been working lately on finishing up the PCV can installation and connection, as well as mounting and connecting the fuel tank. We did a low pressure...
Sounds like it was a nice one, Doug. My 56 was a hand me down from my older brother. It had an over the counter 283 short block with the original 256...
It's been quite a while since we completed and provided any updates on the 56 Chevy. We don't have a lot of miles on it, about 2000, mostly going to...

I have five Corvettes ('60, '69, '72, and two '90 ZR1s) 4 Nomads ('55, '56, '57-2), '69 Z28/RS, '72 El Camino, '55 and '57 Sedans, and even a '70 Mach I (which my wife had bought new before we married!). We've been married since June 1970, I'm a USAF Vietnam era vet, so yes, I'm an old fart.. I either am or have been involved in many car clubs over the years, including local and national Corvette, Camaro, and Classic Chevy clubs. Currently am a member of the CCCI, Chevrolet Nomad Association (ex NNC member), ex NCRS member. In the past I was Pres of a local Classic Chevy Club (the Heart of Dixie Classic Chevy Club- we put on a local show for 18 yrs until the active members got older and more tired, so we are inactive now), and also was an officer of the Tennessee Valley Chapter of the NCRS. I'm a lifetime member of the National Corvette Museum since 1996. I'm an engineer, but retired now since 2012; now I spent most/all of my time/money on my cars...
