Brother, Can You Spare a "Dime"?

There's a 2 barrel Monza out there that runs relatively stout.

2 bbls can be sensitive but very reliable. Thay are tougher to dial from day to day, but keeping good records can keep you close.

Some of these combos have plenty of potential and can be made to run very well. Someone needs to end the talk and come off a dime or two. It would be a wise decision for someone to buy the car Mark is selling because that is a true dime rocket.

Is the 1976 Camaro with the 305 2bbl still a good combo? I got everything except the cam, gears for the 8.5 10-bolt rear, and converter for the Metric 200. Found a complete 305 2bbl out of a 76' Nova for $150 to use as the starting point for the engine. Bullet did the crank, cast pistons on Scat rods. Most of the work was done locally. Car is running with a different engine. I started kicking this around awhile back and got enough parts together to do it whether it was a class car or a experiment to bracket race with in my 83' Camaro.

Quick and dirty T/U/SA car. Not bad at all!

I really enjoy reading this stuff fellas, It makes me look into those backyards for the old abandon cars.
