Hey Tech,

Why dont you start a new service called "verbal dyno"? A person could write and ask "how much horsepower does my 327 with 305 heads have?" You could ask "how much do you want it to have?" They would send you $9.95 and you would issue a "VERBAL DYNO" sheet with their horsepower numbers. Then, they would have written proof.

Also, for the 5000 lb car running in the 7.xx range, you could issue a "VERBAL TIMESLIP" for a similar price.......

Whatcha think?

Mike, that's the funniest thing I've read in a long time and a damned good idea. My sides are aching from laughing. Thanks, buddy.

The irony of it is, it would probably work!!!!!

and......it would sure be easier to build a 500 horsepower
283. Instead of buying several cams, a couple of sets of heads, multiple pistons, and a LOT of dyno time, I coulld have 500 (or more) horsepower for only $9.95!!!! (slightly higher in Canada).

WOW, this would shut up those naysayers.

Your sense of humor is refreshing. Thanks again. "Slightly higher in Canada"

Here it is! Print these, fill out, mail, wait for $$ to fly in!

oops attachment missed...here it is:

Makin' copies, makin' copies, oops, the printer is out of paper......

Think EBAY

Hey Tech, you take Pay Pal???? I could sure handle having a couple of my old cars go faster then they ever did!!! First task would be to make the old Mighty Mav Four a 7.90 Surper Comp instead of a 9.90 Super Gas car. Thought I would start you with something easy. I bracket raced my 90 T-Bird one night on the 1/8 mile in Sioux Falls, it had a 302 in it, (if I was really out on the other guy, I would flip on the A/C to keep from breaking out) could you make it a 4.90 car???? Also when you get into the advanced stuff, could you make it so I never lost an A Main in my circle burners??????

If this is where we put in orderz',

I'd like the "Z" to go deep into the 6's. I realize (But am not totally sure) I'd have to resort to either LOX or a JATO. (and I'm like totally O.K with that man).

BTW: would I need (2) two JATO's to go straight or could I put enough pre-load in the chassis to get by with (1) one?

Thanx' in advance.

When I used to take my 27 roadster to carshows, the civilians would take a look at my relatively mild 350, with big zoomie headers and gobs of chrome and they always asked "how many horsepower is that thing?" I would look them right in the eye and say "500 Horsepower" and they would go away impressed as all Bejesus. Occasionally a real hotrodder would ask me the same question, and when I gave my "500 Horsepower" answer they would start to ask me "how can that be possible with a streetable small block Chev motor?"---Then I would look them right in the eye and give my other answer---"I lie a lot"----I got many mixed responses to that answer.

Might be safer with one in the middle. would sure be a wild ride if the right one fired and the left one didn't!!!!! Hate it when my JATO does that.......

(2) wood' B good. Maybe could steer with 'em. (1) button in each hand. It would handle sorta' like a bottle rocket on a humid evening HUH?

"Hate it when my JATO does that......."

Stop it Dave, you're killin' me....

ROTFLMAO
