The finishing touches were new '69 Dukes of Hazzard door cards and matching seat covers and foam. These were bought from Legendary interiors from the USA, and were fitted by Sid Mudge at <a href="http://www.coachtrimmer.com/">Coach Trimmer</a>. The car is now close to being a replica of the 2000's Dukes of Hazzard movies.SDK Jewellershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09717795570636694215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3637861594547564591.post-67092384869770200952007-09-05T18:50:00.000+01:002007-09-05T18:59:51.646+01:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.general-lee.co.uk/generalleeblog/uploaded_images/PIC-0044-736277.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://www.general-lee.co.uk/generalleeblog/uploaded_images/PIC-0044-736272.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>Last Sunday I picked up the latest upgrade to the <a href="http://www.general-lee.co.uk">General Lee</a>: a built 440 block with a 4150 crank in it, meaning 493 cubic inches. This works out to 8.05 litres. In the next few weeks we will be fitting it, along with a B&amp;M flex plate and PTC 9.5 inch torque converter. I bought the engine built so hopefully it should all go well.<br /><br />The motor is fitted with:<br /><br />Eagle 4150 forged crank<br />10.5:1 aluminium forged pistons<br />Mopar .590 mechanical cam<br />906 cylinder headsSDK Jewellershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09717795570636694215noreply@blogger.com
