The Triangular Air Cleaner identifies it as such, not sure whether 400hp or the 435hp solid lifter version :doe:

I've seen it plenty, I just don't get how it works, exactly. Font two and back two cylinders I suppose are being fed by only one carb, the middle four are seeing air & fuel from two of the 3 I guess? :iono:

There was a good blend of resto modded LS1 swapped you name it... and quite a few of :wap: stuff... I am like a 75 y/o dude when it comes to this. The resto modded shit doesn't do anything for me... I am an "all original" guy.

I have seen some dope resto mod 60s/70s Camaros and Corvettes that dominate at autox and are good on track too. They are so cool but I’m sure you’re looking at a pretty big money build to make something that’s competitive with a stock C5. So cruiser is the way unless you just love the build process, it’s a dream car, or something like that.

Even for Hooters driving though, I could see an exhaust and some nice tires making it more enjoyable if that’s your thing.
The aftermarket for C3's is just :mindblown: I'm sure it would be easy to build a track/auto-x beast out of one, but it's gonna be pricey and starting with a C5 for about the same price makes far more sense because you're starting so much further ahead.

I'll be inheriting this car at some point. So if I lived closer to a track or something and wanted a track car, I'd probably build the thing up because it's a free car to start with.
Just go full :waxer:

Because any idiot with a credit card can "build" (buy) a resto-mod. An all-original thing can't be bought easily, and if it is bought, it becomes an art piece.

Which is why I appreciate Huck's work so much. Built not bought and built in somewhat unexpected ways. 5/7 approach.

I can definitely appreciate stock as well though.
