Well i ran the sparkplug wires on the 389.. what im having a hard time finding is enough shots of the real engine to get all the wires I need.. I need shots of the radiator to see which way they go.. the fuel lines.. everything.. Ive searched google with no luck.. if anyone can help me find better shots of a 389 from a 65gto that would be awsome.. untill then.. here are a couple shots of the engine!
sorry about the bad pictures.. I will have better ones later!

I painted the car Metallic Chestnut brown.. fits the time of when the car was from.. also has the "Gangsta" side to it with the metalflakes.. pictures to come later.. ( accidentally left it in a homies car )

@scar.. what wires are you using? for the engine?

scarface199
02-03-2006, 09:38 AM
im not to sure what gauge it is.. but it is SMALL electrical wire that I found inside of a old remote control car.. and for the radiator hoses.. thicker gauge wire.. and for the fuel lines I used sauder.. bends and looks like real hose.. hope that helps G
