'77 Poncho Fuegobird

[Manbearpig]

Figured I'd make a thread for the car instead of ******* up the conversation thread


VIN lists it as a 77 Formula that had a Poncho 350 back in its stock days

Yanked the driverside head off and found this

Figured it was probably completely locked up but decided to hook a battery up to it and try the starter

and WOO
Its slowly turning. Granted the starter is overheating in the process but its moving

A fresh rebuild and I imagine this guy would run strong

Also measured the bores out to 3.8x which verifys that its the 350

Sweet!!! That's going to be a cool car once you start making progress on it! I'm glad you made a thread just for it. However, I'm not sure it's possible to actually ***** the convo thread more than it already is

Cool pics!

Yep, 3.87 bore is the 350 (or 354).

You know, I hate the guy but Bruce Fulper did a pretty good 350P build.

 

[Old77]

hmmmm..more pics!! Keep 'em coming!

 

[Manbearpig]

Put everything up for the evening. Will get more pics when I start moving away from messing with the engine


Think I'm going to try and find a 400 block locally if this 350 is trashed
