1936 Ford Coupe "Copperhead"
Several years ago, we performed suspension upgrades on this car, by adding big sway bars, switching from airbags to coilovers, and fabricated a new exhaust system.
The owner wanted a little change from his rod. So, we're swapping the 502 Big Block Chevy to a Ford Boss 302 with a custom-fabricated twin-turbo system.
Our combination will put out around 700hp on a mild boost setting, with the capabilities even higher.
Additionally, we're converting the front suspension to a Schwartz G-Machine style front suspension for increased ride quality and handling characteristics.
