Pop open the hood of this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, and you will find a 350 Ci V8 motor, not just any 350; however, this motor is bored .030 over and features a host of upgrades. The list of performance upgrades on this 50s classic includes a new polished aluminum BDS intake manifold Mooneyes finned aluminum valve covers and a new MSD ignition system. Mooneyham supercharger, 600CFM Holley carburetors, and K&N air cleaners inside custom scoops. Delving deeper, we discover new Hooker Competition Plus headers, new Summit mufflers, custom fabricated stainless steel exhaust system, 2.02" intake valves, 1.60" exhaust valves, and a Clay Smith lifter cam. The upgraded performance is met by enhanced handling thanks to the car's rear end being replaced with a Ford 9" differential with Traction Lok setup, 3.50:1 gear ratio, a total rebuild of the front end with parts from Performance Suspension Technology, and a custom-built chassis. This classic beauty channels all its performance to its rear wheels through an M22 Rock Crusher 4-speed manual transmission.
