You tell him Bob! And it's a whole lot harder when there's nothing to work with!

Any competitive stocker needs thrashing no mater what the class and a constant flow of money.

I'll agree with the thrashing thing but the constant flow of money? Lee, you're hurtin' me buddy!

I have to agree with Lee, Billy. Since I don't have your smarts when it comes to mechanical savy, more money to pay someone like you who does would be a big help to me...it would also get me out to more racing events than I've been to in recent years (i.e. one LODRS race in the last 4yrs), and the first race as a stocker in the last 2yrs, due to not enough of the greenbacks in my budget! :(

After plugging in the 12th cam in the Q/SA, I knew Billy was serious about making a 301 Pontiac engine go fast..............well, relitively fast!!!!
Yeah, he worked his butt off getting that thing to run in the 12's.

Nothing on my son's O/SA and P/SA Wagon costs any different than my D/SA or E/SA Dodge.

Same cost Transmission and Converter (6,000+), Rear End and so on!

The 318 is same price to build as 340 (10K +). etc.

Only difference is the heavy wagon tears up more parts.

Your experience may vary!
