Was looking at the rear end thread, good thing you guys are here to help folks out. Almost as bad as my nephew (24) He bought a $100 1969 Couger and wants it to be the fastest car at the track. He's never been to a track before: I am trying to convince him we need to build about a 400 HP 351W for it. get him around a 14 or 13 second car and go from there. He found his engine kit a crankshaft kit that is good for 1500 HP.......OK.....slow down you don't need that,,,,,I don't know a whole lot about building a race car but come on............

what does a 1500 HP crankshaft look like. think he might need another one?

Have to call Summit racing on that one! Thats what they told him! I have no idea either. Said they had a crank that was good for 1500HP. He also wants to "Display" his engine................................think he meant Splayed four bolt main caps.

Will his wallet let him get that crazy??

He doesn't have any idea, I am trying to keep him inline. He has been watching to much TV. He saw Fast and the furious with the black dodge at the end of the movie and he hasn't been the same since.
