Definately different! A GTE powered shoebox. I'll give him some props for originality, but I still need to see how it all works out.

Yup! That used to be the hot swap when I was younger. Drop a Chevy 350 into a small import and basically nothing on the road could touch you.
At the track one night in roughly 1990, I went head to head against a 260z witha 350, I was in a 1987 Regal T Type (GN engine, Regal trim). He was running 12.5 all night long!!!

That intercooler looks a bit on the small side, LOL.
Nice swap.
