71 Valiant
Hey everyone, just cracked the top on this 4dr 71 valiant. 3 on the tree, 70k on the slant/a-230. The 7 1/2 open has been replaced with an UNCUT for 8.8, 3:73 tru-trac and rear disc. 1 1/2 lowering blocks in the back. 2” drop spindles with disc up front.
Plans for the engine include a Garrett ct26 turbo, Gill welding mkii-R intake, mega squirt 2 controller and other misc FI parts. Shooting for a cam with around 115* lobe separation, ARP rod bolts and head studs, standoffs in lifter valley and I think that is all.
The a-230 is being replaced with a 74 non OD 833.
Going back to f7 sherwood green, john deer blitz black hood, with 225 turbo call outs in the spirit of the 340 wedge duster hoods. Rims from the pick a part are 17” from a 08 jeep compass. Needed to die grind the hub ridge, but worked perfect. Rims are temporary and for starting numbers, but work perfect with the uncut 8.8. Found a 74 4dr at the pick a part. She has been donating to the cause. Discs and otherwise.
