You have a pic? Im 44... i guess, in NHRA Stock, that makes me young
Im building my 68 Bird into an E or F car... but, would love to do a 'dime rocket".... I have most everything i'd need...except for some 7k3's... I have correct intake, a fairly decent shortblock(went 11.50s with stock heads, in my bird), 3.90 gears(to start), and decent converters...but the 10bolt is the weak link... Why cant we run a 400(with 4bbl)? I think it was rated at 250hp, as well...correct? I know the 455 is a no brainer...i just need a 12 bolt...or a good 8.5 10bolt... I wonder how good a 400/200 2bbl would run? I have everything but a correct intake...shouldnt be hard to find...
