Just getting it out for test and tune this year..I am sure this probably isn't allowed without an AMC motor..(I spent way too much on my AMC street car engine to build one for my drag car) please delete if its not allowed. PK

I like it! What are the specs on engine/driveline and chassis? Any performance goals in mind?

So, is your AMX street legal in ND? Ask because of the license plate. She's one BADDD AAASS Machine!
Questions are powerful tools...what's in your toolbox?

Yes it is, has current license on it. Its a 505 BBC, 4.25 stroke Bill Miller aluminum rods, JE Pistons (12.34-1) Crower Cam, .846 lift lots of duration, Brodix BB3XTRA Heads, 10-71 HH blower, Enderle Bird catcher, 13 gallon Hilborn pump, 3 speed Lenco with triple disk Ram clutch.. Big Rearend… etc.. once I get the bugs worked out I will let you know what it runs. Last weekend it was draining the surge tank in 1.7 seconds. Got bigger pumps, tanks and lines now. PK

Yea POS #1 I do believe we have talked a few times. Didn't I get some rockers from you for my AMC motor? Anyway, yes it does have a clutch pedal. I have only been down the track in a car 4 times so I am a little nervous. More so then riding the Top Fuel Harley. I was planning on building an AMC for it but I already had a lot of BBC stuff from another project so I went with that. Anyway here are a few pictures of underneath and rearend. Pretty excited to run it again next weekend.

Why does seem like the engine is sitting up so high? Looks the the valve covers are above the fenders?

Very big motor, wee lil car... Actually the whole body is lowered over the frame of the car. I will take some pictures of it with the hood on, it doesn't look like the motor is up so high when hood is on. PK
