    Hello all

     



    Newb here to the board. Learning what I can of BBC info so I can get my 496 build started. Going into a 1986 Cutlass. Got it for a steal even though it's a 2 bolt block, should be able to make a lot of power w/it.

    Welcome to the forum. Just watched a similar Cutlass run on Pass Time last night and commented how they make really nice drag type cars. Post some pictures of your when you can.

    It's in pieces in the garage right now. Not worth posting IMO. I plan on a Fab 9, Currie or Strange 9" rear with adjustable uppers, boxed lowers, frame reinforcing where needed, rear frame notch to make room for 12" wide slicks and a 10pt cage, cause I know I will need it......lol.
