I would make him pay for the hot tank and mag.
You could always offer to split the cost of the hot tank and mag.
If he does not want to run fast run far.
thanx for the info and advice. i appreciate it.

The 454 block would make a good starting point for a 496.:rolleyes:
that would be better than a slat6:rolleyes:Quote:

Then it was "why do you have them in the garage"
She then said "What if I wanted to buy a new Tahoe"?
"Where would I put it at" ?
She already has a new Honda Accord,Yes I said Honda.
I could think of a couple of different place's she could put the new Tahoe at but I bit my tongue.
I can't complain to much.
She has not been that mean over the years.:eek:

Well he had me on that one.
He had "channel iron " run all up and down the chassis.
Narrowed nine inch,wheel tubes, everthing you could think of had been done.
350 turbo, a 10-point cage,a 450 hp 383.
I looked at the car for awhile and his welding was good anyway.
