Can't get them in the US except places that import intentionally and it's like $15-20 a pack.. $2 in canada.. i can wait
No.. trying to give the poly away if someone wants it
Putting in a LA.. i LOVE polys but without being able to buy parts it makes no sense to run one.
He isn't a modified guy. Every car he and his dad have are stock. Would have to google other ones
Yeah.. my plan when i got the car since it was soooo original, it was a famly driver til 78 then parked til last year was to just get the poly running and have a nice quiet easy cruiser.. that **** went out the window pretty quickly as i'm trying to find a 3.91/4.10 to go with a semi built engine
Love this car.... not bad for a small block
He's been racing it for years, spun a bearing last year and rebuilt.. i think it's a 412 inch now with trickflows, just a good solid car. Has build/dyno vids also
Would be fun to take mine to the track with some sticky tires and see what it will do just for ***** and giggles.
What engine you running?
I'd love to put some sticky tires on mine too. According to my Draggy my 60' times range from 2.4-2.6 seconds. would love to get those down and start seeing 12's in the 1/4 mile.
Magnum 360 block stroked to 408 with Edelbrock Performer heads and roller rockers. Blue Print built it for me I ordered it from JohnnyMac.
Nice, i want to do a 360>426 when the time comes.. just doing a 318 for now with trickflows and parts i can swap over to the 426 in a year or two.. this year is to get the car mobile and work out bugs.
Good time though without sticky tires. I only been on the track once in my life and was a great memory I should do it again.
Same.. i took my '99 FRC vette to a track and i think that's the only time i ran.. had a blast.. went to the drag strip a lot with friends and to watch over the years though
Good plan ran mine with a 71 340 for about 5 years before putting in the 408. Worked out all the bugs and been trouble free after that.
If not, the new motor will be sooner than later.. was just gonna do a 390 but got sick of people acting like you kick a puppy if you mention a 390
That looks damn good.. i eat a salad for lunch pretty much every day, none look that good though
I just cheat and get mixed greens with spinach and throw on some cherry tomatoes. Blue cheese dressing today with some fresh cracked pepper. I have been sending the wife to work with salads for lunch. I fry up a chicken breast and slice it up. Got to have a little protein. Here's a "Strawberry Fields" copy of a salad from Culvers Restaurant. I should have pulled that hollow strawberry out before I took the photo. LOLThat looks damn good.. i eat a salad for lunch pretty much every day, none look that good though
I think I paid $7,500 for my 408 and today's prices I bet are a lot higher.Yeah.. i'm going cheap though.. no idea the milage on the 318, just a decent motor.. hoping the bearings are in good shape
Yeah... i figure i will have 5k into the bottom end.. prolly 7-9k total when done.. just for the engine.. but i'm not using the money for anything else anyway.. Just really should have gone big block.. could have built a monster stroker BB.. but that would be less interesting
Salad sounds good and those look real good Mike.
