I see you post this in jest all the time.
Let's just drop this once and for all....
Forced induction is not "literally" a replacement for displacement. The forced induction does nothing without displacement, at best it's a "supplement". Supplementing displacement is not the same as replacing it. Displacement has to come first.
That's why you see large engines both with and without forced induction, but you don't see tiny engines with forced induction trying to complete with 100,000+ hp ship engines. FI alone can NOT get you there. Displacement can.
If you're looking for a moderate boost in power over an NA engine, a turbo can easily get you there. If you're looking for a 500% increase in power, you can forget about your current engine and start looking for more displacement. Sure you can supplement the increased displacement, but FI alone can only do so much. Displacement is only limited by space, weight, and manufacturing techniques. Beyond that, power is literally limitless.

Nah b I would just wait for a 70 71 split bumper as it is in picture my personal opinion is you wait for the body style you like because that will never look like what you posted. But if ur still interested ask for more Picard ask about rust and originality on itYeah I'm going to email him about and find out. I may even go up there since its about 45 minutes away from me. But I'll definitely ask about the paperwork, thanks for the heads up about that.
I'm hoping so, I want it as a project car. Never worked on an engine before though, body might not be ready.
Not sure what the engine is though, I haven't reached out to the owner yet.
Here's pics of the car + engine
Would really want to cop since its my all-time favorite muscle.
This is the outcome I'm looking to build

Lot of gm parts are convertable because they have left over supplies from previous model years or you could just do a little fab work and fiberglass molding etc.

Ace always doing something absurd to bring attention to themselves.
Looks like they painted it with the leftover paint they used to cover their building. :x :x

A front end conversion should be all bolt on, although you may have to replace the whole core support. I've seen it done quite a few times. If you want an accurate clone, rear fascia conversion is where you'll run into trouble.

The simple fact I keep comparing rice burning commuter engines that need a turbo to make a measly 300hp to Luddite pushgawd engines is how you know I'm exposing my true feelings of insecurity on this topic.
But, carry on lol.
