i thought pacos car was built around 2006 ish..... werent 700in motors from pan to carbs around that price? 70k ish

but again i havent said anything negative about anyones car.... im not sure where you guys are coming up with that.....
but yeah im fairly new to the racing game compared to most of you... i've only been in since 2004... so sure, most of you have forgotten more than i know...

 

i figured he might have harvested a promod motor or something... either way like i've sad before...4.9x in any car is moving out....

 

I built Pacos and the Mustang in 2007. Paco bought the motor from an outlaw 10.5 racer. He was going to run a LS based motor but he saw the light and realized it wouldnt be competitive without a turbo and hes a NOS guy.

 

It's a 5.000" BS 632 Fulton engine he got from Greg Pizzino's Outlaw 10.5 car. In 06 it ran 4.60's in Outlaw 10.5 trim.

 

we are just hoping to get mine down to 5.50 on a 325 tire on stock suspension

 

What? Why on earth would someone build a 5" BS 632?

Paco's cool as hell.

 

I guess that's how far we've come in the last 4 years. The engine was built in '04 I think.

 

Maybe they offer better heads in the 5" bore space? I'm going Dart big M block 10.2 deck. I don't even want to ask hat a 5" bore space block costs.

 

The thing is, by the time you get the block and heads, it's not but a little extra to build a 700+ engine instead of a 632. You're gonna have to buy a crank anyways, so might as well get a big one and build an 800" engine.

But back when the engine was built if you could run low .60's in Outlaw you were a bad dude, so the 632" was good enough.

 

800+" would give me a constant boner driving

 

I saw a 846 that made 1900 hp N/A with something like a 1.2" lift cam LOL. Talk about stepping up.

 

Mr. Madman any idea how much weight it saves running a strut vs tubular uppers and lowers if keeping the towers in place like this?

 

Why??? For the same money with Burkhart uppers and lowers and a Racecraft spindle you are the same weight and legal.

 

Cool thanks for the info, you're the man madman, looks like I'll go that route then.
