'69 Chevelle
Colten Wesen
Centralia, WA Colten's owned his '69 Chevelle since he was just 15. The first thing he did was get rid of the bland 307 small-block in favor of a stroker 383 that produces 470 hp and 450 lb-ft. The factory four-bolt block was bored 0.060 over; he then added a set of H-beam rods, Keith Black 11.5:1 forged pistons, and a solid Erson roller cam with Isky 1.6:1 roller lifters. A 12-bolt with a 3.55:1 posi rearend helps the Mickey Thompson ET slicks propel this big-bumper to 12.1 at 111 mph!
