Default Re: 78-82 Malibu wagon for stock

Rocket block---In all respect to you and all the others on this forum I just might be the new kid on the block in stock---Just for the record I have been around doing this since 1956- Modified/Comp/Super Stock Brackets etc.!!!!!!!!!!!!!--I think if you research the different combos out there that have not been beaten to death or exceptionally soft indexes either I really do believe that it is possible to easily run 6-8 tenths under if you did your home work AND have the right parts too----No point beating on a combo that has been factored to death or cuz that your a diehard Chevy,Ford Studebaker dump truck guy or
that is what is in the driveway so we might as well make a race car out of it or whatever cuz it ain't gonna be competitive if you have that attitude---Only reason I asked about a Malibu Wagon is I have one--Otherwise it could be a Ford Escort or a Pontiac Wagon or a Dodge wagon or a toyota 4 door sedan---If I want to run a certain class I will look for the "correct" body/engine combo that fits what I want to do and I think is gonna be competitive!!!! If it is not gonna be a top half car I'll go fishing cuz I'm not gonna waste my time/money doing laps at -2 tenths under. I think I have been more than fair asking questions etc. I'm not teying to offend anybody or get into a "pissing" match--Comp has gotten too expensive for me and I still want to dragrace so I am looking at some lower cost alternatives--Stock might be for me no all night thrashing---not worrying about having 3-4 guys with me at the track I can run the whole show by myself or with 1 other person along---- See my side of it ?????
