    For not being able to hook up, a 12 sec. run is very respectable!

    I am with you about not wanting to go faster without some more protection...

    More than anything, I am a little PO'd at myself for letting that distributor loose. I could have beaten that Cuda.

    I think I have been bitten by the drag racing bug. I spent last night cleaning the block and pistons from the Camaro ex racer I bought a couple of years ago. Don't know what I am going to put it in, but all machine work is done on the block it just needs fresh cam bearings, the head mounting surfaces decked a little, and the cylinders honed to make it usuable. The World Product heads look good, but I'll get them freshened up. It came with an AirGap intake, Holley 750 DP, electric water pump, B&M TH350, some MSD ignition stuff, and roller rockers, so it won't cost a fortune to make a nice little bracket motor out of it.

    I would like to put together an old timey Bantam altered, but I do have the 93 Mustang Don just gave me in trade for the 460 stuff. When I told Don I was thinking of putting the Chevy in the Mustang he said "No way, I'll buy you a Ford motor before I see that happen !"
