Time for a rematch Pat. First a Cobra beats you and and now a 3rd gen will. J/k, but seriously I wouldnt reassemble that motor unless it was my ONLY means of transportation, it is going to break very soon. I know it hurts to hear and I fully understand you wanting to just slap it back together to make it run, but this will be a regretted decision. Btw, why didnt you ever post that vid of our runs?

Actually, it was that beltdrive that gave it away. What is that CRANE? Maybe it's a Danny Bee, I dunno, I'm used to seeing Jesel. Like I said, those heads are shaped like mod motor heads, and since we were talking about those mod motors I made a easy mistake. No biggie.

Well, I'm glad I took the stupid way out and put a turbo on the car verses what a smart man would do and jack around with the internals of a perfectly good engine.
I'm such an idiot...I should have gone H/C & 500 shot of nitrous...I'd be a genius then!!

Big difference between a self installed H/C and a shop doing it.....

Ya, I think it was Al Gore that said that just before he annouced he had invented the internet 
. What a moron! BTW, global warming does NOT exist 
Flame on mother truckas!
BTW, I ran a sweet 8.6 at 90+mph tonight. It's a new personal best. That was with me about turning the car sideways on street radials after trying to launch with boost.

I'm pratical. Like spending $3k for 500hp verses H/C/N20 guys spending $7k.
Al Gore is a d-bag and needs a fat **** in his mouth whether or not the planet is warming. Either way...WHO CARES!! Take the cats off your car and speed er up!!
