    Ya know the thing about those 500HP build claims, is that if you pick up any muscled-up car mag, they always have the big headlines "500 HP small block on Pump GAS ON a Budget." MMMM.... might be Bill Gates budget. Not Mine. BUT... then average Joe thinks, ya Everybody can get 500 outa one of these puppies, and I can save some money by using this chaper part and that cheaper part, and oh ya I dont need rollers, stamped should work. Before ya know it ya got another 11 second story. Just my 2 cents.

    Dave you ever see the old artical of the 427 vette with a Ford FE 427 transplanted into it?? It's kinda neat. I'll see if I can find it...

    I have a line on a nice 68 BB Cougar I'm hoping will pan out. The old Mustangs are just to much for what you get....and for what I can spend. I've only had one old 69 Cat so we'll see how this one pans out.

    The 84 Vette would make a nice home for a Windsor!!! I like it!!

    Well I have a friend Patteli who wins a lot in baja. When the magazines and interviews ask what you have in your engine he gives them some B.S. As he says I never tell those guys the truth or everyone would be running like I do. I didn't spend countless time and money researching only to tell someone else. Build what I tell the reporters and I'll see you at the next race.
    Good racers tell fibs.

    better racers dont have to tell fibs... no one can catch them
