Here's another solution on what looks to be an unfinished project: https://www.trifivechevys.com/showthread.php/3493-Project-HEMI-55/page7?highlight=Nomad
Well, I've never went that route myself. So, I'd say, go with the '57 conversion, as a unanimous vote from the experts here
I'd go hydraulic. With those, there is nothing to adjust and the pedal effort is greatly reduced. If too expensive for your budget, you could construct something similar yourself, using either new or...

Here's a '58 with a 283. Being 6 inches shorter than an American Pontiac of that year, I'm guessing that this one's a Bel-Air with a Pontiac shell and dash:

That's not a cup holder. He sticks his beer cans in there ;)
Both are basically the same engine. The only possible difference might be with one or both of the advancing mechanisms, since each one of those engines put out their horsepower at different power...
This is probably the rarest steering wheel bearing the Chevrolet emblem ever.
Is it unique to this Chevroltiac or does anybody recognize it produced for domestic Chevrolets?
I think, it looks...
Why is anyone still buying that crap? The money people save in the short run will be payed back out again, as soon as that junk fails its service.
They did a documentary here, a few years ago (they...
I'd polish them up as shiny as possible
The following weirdo car has its master turned 90° sideways:

A mirrored as seen from the outside and green on the inside upper strip would look cool, without the green color mismatching the paint:

Here's something to make those people even nicer :):

Shucks, I was hoping this thread would be about Checkers :(

That engine's tilted so high that it looks like it would just clear the hood, if at all. It's a good thing that it isn't using an original oilbath aircleaner. It might just be an optical illusion...

I haven't found the warranty clause. But, they're not the cheapest heads on that site...
What we used to refer to as "Feulie Heads", betrayed by the double camel humps. Light weight blocks and heads are always cool. Go for it
That brings back memories. My dad had both that 1 1/2 inch thick '55 shop manual, along with the 1/2 inch supplement for the '56s when he bought his new either 150 or 210 2-door sedan. I see that...
Well, in that case, if Sue's not living alone, pulling the stunts that you've just mentioned would more likely turn that Corvette into a Widowmaker, rather than a Widowermaker
The smile doesen't even look fake. That's a good sign that your help isn't going to simply walk away.
Are you going to chuck the plastic covering on that engine (some claim that such trim pieces...
A woman I used to live with asked me the same thing :eek: She meant something else, though. And it didn't mean to involve my thumb
Isn't that how a toilet in a jumbo jet works?
Presenting the genie who came out of the lamp you just rubbed
:-o
What, and get the engine buzzed? I see possibilities for this gadget's abuse. For instance connecting a hose to the inlet for last-minute belly button lint vacuuming before dates or for even worse,...
