I'm new here at this site, and i wanted to show ya'll Al and I's Modern interpretation of the Olds 442....With Two V6 engines a 3100 V6 in the front and a fully caged rear with the front subframe/3800/Tranz from a 90 Trofeo swapped in. This season she will be going to the track to see what she will run with both engines (NA) and each having to haul only half the weight they originally had to (I will be seeing what my 74 Nova will run with up to 200Hp N2O and new heads-the Turbocharged 400sbc will be ready in another two seasons!). Then over this fall/winter we will be fabbing up a Turbocharger setup for the rear 3800 and converting to MegaSquirt DIY EFI for tuning it.
Early pic of the rear 3800 (def behind the front seats!)
and an early trunk view:
and the fuel system that comprises 60% of the $2000 bux we have in her so far, Aeromotive 100 psi pump and all the associated AN hose etc:

the 442 is our project (Al owns it-didnt even finish paying it off when we started chopping her up) but my dragcar is a 74 Nova hatchback *******/Lowbuck project--less than $3000 in the whole car, 13.5's at 103+ mph--she will be going much faster this season with a new convertor and a (up to) 200Hp plate N2O kit. more on the Nova here:
