QQ1 was actually a half-year color that had a cut-off date if you were ordering the car.
They quit using it in July I believe? My car and Mario's were Born in June, and we both
have that P.I.T.A. hood latch location also. The paint is Spies Hecker, and they matched
the color with the inside of the deck lid before it was stripped. Dead Nuts! Had some
friends joke that it was a GM color from the label, but Hey, they had to start somewhere!
I plan on putting 15" Magnum 500's all around with the full chrome, not the trim ring.
Tires will be determined at the last minute. The engine is a 440, 0.030 over with 906
ported heads opened up to Max-Wedge size with an Indy Dual plane intake and Eagle
H-Beam rods. Speed Pro pistons with a 0.080 dome (cut down from 0.140) 727 TF
with a 2800 stall convertor and a Dana 60 with a 3:73. Hooker competition headers
and I almost forgot, I opened the stock oil pickup passage in the block to 11/16 and
put the Milodon Road Race pan on and their 1/2" pickup.
