More major changes than I originally assumed.
Travis says first outing with some of his handiwork on the "old black car" showed a lot of promise. Looking forward to the Gas Monkey episodes coming down the road.
Engine obviously is still the E-Head engine until the other parts are ready to be installed and dialed in.

Power doesn't mean much if you can't get it to the ground and the word is the CrowII car will be a good one. Some may have seen the video of the pass that was made by the car, posted on PY, (with Travis Q in the background).

Well, I guess we will find out because he ran Gas Monkey with all his old junk in the new shell...Gives good baselines to see if there are any improvements when he switches...

Default Why such an elaborate valley pan?
Forgive if this is a total noob question: The heads and intake are awesome of course, but what is going on with the tricked out billet valley pan? There appears to be some sort of fancy baffles or such under it?

E-HEADS ARE STILL ON THE ENGINE AND RUNNING A DIFFERENT CHASSIS (PALBYKIN'S CAR.) LOL!

All that aside, Billy's car is bad to the Bone! Very Nice Billy.

Looking good Billy, congrats on the achievements.. !

BOP made that drive system for the front mounted distributor years ago and it seems to work well with boost. Adjusts just like a rear mount distributor.

System has worked on Butler/Quillen's 63 Tempest that went low 6s so must not be too bad.

Hope that helps. Maybe Billy can add more as to reasons why it is old school but works. .

To be honest I've never really given it much thought.
