im sure it wont get races with the small block in it,let alone if it had a big motor.
fuel economy FTW

Just leave it stock, nobody will race it anyways since they won't believe that it is stock. Then you can just say you wanted to race but everyone is afraid of a little stock 327 sbc with a Holley carb on it. And yes I am sure people will be skeeeeerrrrd of the car since it has a Clocks Off sticker on it.

I'll race it but I'm sure you "guys" will want to be set out 1000ft or you'll want to race some girls car......

Should change your sticker to "Only Safe Races"......................

ouch,now that hurt.
i thought i was fair to people last year,hell we ran a fbody on drag radials with a pickup trup with a tune in it,heads up...nothin like toting around an extra couple thousand lbs and still cant get a "fair" race lol

all in all,this is truely goin to be a street car,92 octane with a/c.its big and heavy and it is keeping a small block. the goal is to have something with good street manners. I doubt it will be much faster than mid 13s on the tuneup. there are plenty of cars we can bring out to race,this will not be one of them.
