Looks great! But is it just me, or does the rear look tweaked?

Eh....sounds like the motor is nothing special. A .500 lift 218/228 cam with stock-type pistons, and a 650 carb? Can't be all that quick....

Better off with a small block, must weight a ton and I bet it only makes 400HP or so.
Nice start to make it a full blown race car but for 16K

I was thinking the same thing. It's not impressive to me at all. 650 Holley on a 454? Summit Cam? Non NHRA legal roll bar? What appears to be a possible botched pro street job?
Black pro street IROCs are cool looking but aside from that there isn't much else.

The rear is tweaked so the tires stay on the ground at launch

Eh? With tires that big, I doubt there is any trouble getting that car to launch with that motor in it....

Eh?
The motor isn't making anywhere near the amount of power that requires that type of chassis tuning. Even then, the stiffer spring would go in the passenger side of the car to absorb the torque reaction- not the driver's side.
I think they either photographed the car on a slant or screwed up the pro street job.

What, with a stiffer spring or extra leaf on the passenger side? Plenty of people have done that, and still do. Some factory super stock cars were even built like that. But that's not the case here since it's backwards
