http://youtube.com/watch?v=U8x47lRNslc or here it is in action in the orange car http://youtube.com/watch?v=AhLcHV3iVNU Guess it ran a 10.994 1/4 mile not bad for 239 cubic inches.

10.994 1/4 mile is great, I`d take that.

nice...i wonder what it cost to get that 335hp?? 10 secs is very respectable!!

i can tell you the blower itself is around 8k plus another 1k for the aluminum pulleys and belts, around 750 for the aluminum mallory dist, about 700 for the offy heads, 400 for the likely 4"crank and the same for the intake and 500 for the cam, prolly bored out so give or take a bit.... 3.5-5k for machining and pistons and rods etc. It prolly has dual 4 barrels so lets say 350 each new. Grand total is prolly $16k-18.5K (guestimate)

And then still a decently modded 302 can kick ya, but that ain't the point.

[effie_man]

you would look way cooler.

[Fomoko1]

At that rate I`d be way too broke to worry about being cool...
I`d be too poor to even pay attention.

i got about 85 dollars in high performance upgrades to my 1949, my not be fast but got the cool classy factor.

Cheap and cool wins everytime in my books!

i wish i could say i only got 85$ into mine but alas i just spent another 750 lol, my grand total is like 3000ish right now

[Fomoko1]

Wow, $3,000 into just the engine or is that into the 53?

[effie_man]

thats the 53 i got like 1750 into engine and exhaust right now, all parts right now that havent been put on

[96sherm]

i'll probably only put about a grand into the 351 unless something's amiss once we pull her apart. body stuff will run up quite a bit more when i do it. i guess its a little lower on the "coolness" scale though...
