Kinda both as I'm a broke a$$ SOB right now!

Actually, I have a stock 2-bolt block (not machined), but I'd like to score a Corvette 4-bolt (like what I had) so I can swap all my internals over.

I've got a +.030" 2-bolt Lt1 sitting in the car you are welcome to.
It was the one I was going to use for the 355 before I scrapped the project.
It might have 20 miles on it since Paul got it back from the shop. New cam bearings too.

Thanks for the offer James! Now if I could just win the lottery to get the $$$, I'd be game!

Can't help ya there, they took away my crystal ball on the last round of budget cuts.
I'm working with an 8-ball at the moment, not even a real one...
I'm skimping by with the stupid plastic $1 McDonald's one.

Hey, the magic 8 ball works fine for most occasions...

Hell, someone here last night asked "Will the 58mm TB make more power over the 52mm TB" and we got the ole' "You can rely on it".... So I will!

Yea but I did that with no 2nd gear bish. Bet that 150 shot could not do that with no 2nd! I think that 9.56 pass would have been around a 9.30 or better if i would have had 2nd gear.

I am surprised Taner has not responded to this thread yet!

No 2nd, no transbrake, and that was only a 200 shot. The 250 pills didn't get dropped in until we were at the dyno later. Plus your 60 ft was horrible.

OutlawZ, you better be in the 8's with yer 150 ...

Yeah, well if mine had had wheels and a motor on it, it would have run 7's all day long,
in reverse, with the brakes still engaged and an open chute.
