SS Modified

I see a big difference from "working hard" to "spending money" in my personal approch in Drag Racing. I don't know anything about 10K stocker heads but have spent the last 2 plus years building my own car. I could not afford to A. buy a complete car and B. pay somebody to build, but I am talking about a Stocker though. Only way I can race is "work hard" doing and learning my own thing. One set of real stock heads on my 396/325, just flowed them with different valves. That Impala ran 7-8 tenths under then, that same motor is going in my 65 Impala now would be a 5 tenths under? I'll be happy to get the car down the track for now, and have some fun.

Mike you are right about the $ taking out the eliminator eventually, look at Pro Stock. The thread on 70-80's Pro Stock shows tons of different cars, today only handful of teams and who knows how long Pro Stock will be around.

Just enjoying this bench racing.
