Looking for Nailhead Pics, Audio and Video I've been lookin for any Nailhead media that I can find out on the 'net, and it's scarce at best. Does anyone here have good pictures, video, or audio clips of their or someone else's nailheads? I have seen the pics posted on the GSCA board from the 401-470ci stroker, and I've seen pics on ironhunter.net and barely a handful of other sites. Thanks guys!!
Hi Scott, I have a 401 in my Electra and can take any pics you want. I'm thinking of taking a few short videos as well. A couple of 'round the engine bay', revving it up (love the sound of the Nailheads) and maybe even some of me wasting what's left of my rear tyres before I buy new ones. :Brow: You looking for anything in particular?
Ok, I'll find a secluded stretch of road - shouldn't be too hard. I wanted to take some videos for the site anyway showing how to adjust the air-valve on the Q-Jet and to see if I could capture the magnificent sound of a revving Nailhead. Stay tuned.
Can't Wait Bill, I would like to hear the secondaries of the Q-Jet make that great sucking sound! I built my Nailhead with one, but I have not heard it run yet! One of my favorite memories was the sound of my '68 350 Buick secondaries, man that was great. 1978, only 16 but already the Buick gene was engaged.
Nice That is REALLY nice! Lets see if I can browse up a nailhead....Oh yeah, saw this roadster @ Pomona swap meet last month!
Here is a shot of my dad's car leaving the line. It's a 425 with 2-4bbls and a little nitrous in a '64 Riviera. Ken
