    chears, will do. it is 90 bhp at present. what is the bigest decider on a drag strip? and what makes the bigest diference on a quater mile time? tubular exhaust, fiberglass bonnet/wings, diferent fuel, air intake. am going to add things throghout the season and get my time down but which ones make the biggest diference? dont fancy taking engine apart so cams ect are not an option, but want to do it pay day by pay day. just want to get it to a nice time, between 12 and 14 would be nice. think thats realistic? without changing engin internal parts.

    From 18.9??????


    Not asking much here huh?

    Well you could try installing a big block. You wouldnt be changing any of your current internals.

    Run the 1/8th mile? I mean it takes two thirds of the time to do the first half distance wise so this should get your times right where you want them.



    sorry couldnt resist.
