Almost hate to be the guy to do this but wheres the punctuation? Makes for a tough read as one long sentence.
Id be more concerned about the poor guy spending $11,000 to only runs 11s:eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2:
Getting Jenn's new Temporary car on the track in the next few weeks and having some fun with the turbo charged small block. We will be removing the Nailhead from the Supercat dragster soon. After that we will start adding the components to it to bring it up to top fuel rules. New Crower clutch and reverser, Tomahawk block and all the fuel and oil drives. We will also be adding a new 15 gallon fuel tank:shock: talk about fuel economy:laugh: Here's a few pictures of the temporary car. Our oldest son will be learning to drive with this car soon also.
Really Nick? That's not a lot of money when it comes to building a Buick. I think it depends on what he started with. It also depends on whether we are talking true full weight street car, or dedicated light weight Race car. There are certainly ways to save money with the parts choices you make. Sorry, but don't you think your remarks are kind of offensive, and judgemental? Did you just start at going 9's or did you get there gradually? I've read your signature line, and I agree 100%, but sometimes people make mistakes. That is how we learn. I'm sure you are going to build a very fast Buick, and at least part of the reason will be information you got from reading on V8, don't you think?
Working on my 69 Buick Riv. Stock 455 (some parts from TA) and sheet metal work in the trunk, rear wheel house, and passenger compt floor (mostly the front passenger side). Tons of detail work on all the parts that are laying around my workshop.
sorry about the one long sentence . Idont know how to spell to good eaither . My car is street more than the track and about 3800 lbs and its 12000 $ the only thing i will be reusing is the block and crank i am open for suggestons thanks mark
Mark Start a new thread so this one can stay on track. Give more details on your goals for power, gas mileage, idle quality and so on. You will get plenty of suggestions. Paul
Going to put a bigger big turbo on, have someone check out an issue with the Trans i just built, and hopefully paint...Errol see how it goes though!
