if you are building your own motor and cash is low, you could always send the 241's on my motor out to get milled/ported and make some decent #'s on them. I got pic of it too in the southern classifieds if you want to take a look also

This is where adjustable control arms and panhard bar is a must to help line the tires up. I got lucky on my 275/60/15s and everything fell ALMOST perfect.

I talked to Texas Speed and they quoted me $850 to do a Stg 2.5 on my 241's. That included bigger 2.02 int/ 1.575 exh valves. Told me they would put my springs on also if I sent them in also. I think it's a good price. Should net some good numbers with them and I plan on sending mine in next month.

Now you are talking like a racer! You going to put a good stall with that too huh?
Welcome to the Real car forum Taylor!
I've seen your car a few times and love what you have done to it! It sure has came a long ways from the days of the black and gray primer. I love seeing young guys still doing muscle cars instead of the whole ricer bullshit.
