Re: heads- up runs
Jeff,
This is straying somewhat from thread, but your car is still at that point after 4 years? I'm very patient but my patience would have ran out about 3 years ago because it sounds like it has'nt been touched. I think making your car back to stocker sounds like good ideal. Mike Taylor 3601 |

Re: heads- up runs
Bubski I currently do run a small block but for different reasons. I made the change to the small block before the new cars came because it is less expensive, less maintenance, and fits my driving style better. Though I did win a race with the big block back 5 years ago I would not go back to A-AA or AAA unless I had one of the new cars. I have always been more interested in winning than going fast and pick classes that I can be competitive in. You are right that my 402 would not be comp with the new cars
Lee, no problem brother it was a great race, hope we can dance in a final again in 2012, lol.

Hey now that the car is "down" for the winter maybe it's time to turn it up. Lighter pistons, lightweight crank, small bearing rods, cylinder head work, block machining ..... you know the routine. 8-)
