    he swears this car with that combo will run 12.40 in the quarter mile
    If he's talking MPH, he's right. If he's talking ET, he's wrong.

    He essentially put a cam in a stock motor. That gives him not enough horsepower, the wrong gear and the wrong converter. If two wrongs don't make a right, three certainly don't.

    My advice . . . don't argue with him. Just tell him good luck and ask to see the timeslip.

    As they say, it's like wrestling with a pig. You both get dirty, and the pig enjoys it.

    Too tall of gears and too much stall. Go with some 3.70 to 4.11 gears and a 2500 to 3000 stall and it will work better. With that stall and those gears he's talking about he will be stalling all of the time at normal cruising speeds.
    Did you type that correctly 080 over 350, or did you mean .060. If 080 that thing ain't gonna last.

    OK Scooter, then you kick his ass so we don't have to come over and do it.

    To the Scooter hijacker: Posting talks . . . timeslipss walk. Paper racers don't have timeslips. Let us know when you get one.
