Opinions on Shafiroff Crate Motors???
.....Hi Everyone, Does anyone have or know anyone has a Scott Shafiroff Crate Motor??? Just wondering what kind of experience you/they have had. My '32 isn't fast enough & this would probably do the 'trick' .... Thanks, Bill

Then when you get used to that horsepower, put it in your wife's car and get one of these!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

.....Eric & Pat, THANKS for the good advice. Yes after thinking about it I see that for the same money I'd get a lot more HP & TQ. It just seemed easier to put a small block in cuz it's already set up for one.....
.....LOL, good one Dave, not only is your comment/picture funny but it brings up a really good point. Which is, going up a 130-160 HP/TQ would only be enough for a short period of time. And for $14 g's I should get more HP/TQ than that.....
.....What I think I'll do is hook up nitrous on my current engine. That'll be the cheapest way to 'experience' more
THANKS, Bill

FATGIRLS ARE LIKE MOPEDS , FUN TO RIDE JUST DONT LET YOUR FRIENDS SEE YOU ON THEM
on small cars yes. but fat fender cars are pretty much the same in size and weight as the donor car. i found s10 brakes work great on fat fender and pickups. a deuce will just need manual brakes...
Time for brakes
