Cool, thanks for the link.
But 12.90 with a 351, I wouldnt say that out loud.

LOL, kinda what I was thinking as well. He did say it weighed 2400Lbs and had some traction issues...maybe it was a stock 8:1 smog motor, who knows. Hard telling how the rear suspension was built as well. We have guys in the 12's now with BPts and FWD, so I would think 11's could be achieved with a fairly mild motor if the car is set up right.

it only takes one wrong setting and you have traction issues.

Nobody saw that 16' boat with a 460 on it? That's nuts my friend had a 16' with a 454 with a 200 shot, it looked so retardedly sick !

with a stick car & an adjustable clutch you can slip the clutch. Then bring it back in at a higher rpm
No more traction issues. The hard part is setting the clutch just right for every 1/4 pass

I'm super excited to see this. Also, every time a boat is brought up with an old v8 in it. I always gotta post these... Haha this is my uncle's 15ft fiberglass boat with a supercharged 454 in it.



Oh here's his corvette that used to be a supercharged 454, he took supercharger parts off of it for the boat lol

Love it!

Wow...all that Vette needs is a disco ball hanging from the rear view mirror! I remember back in the '70s when custom crushed velvet interiors were the rage...Shag-a-delic!

A friend of mine has a 2.3 turbo in his garage with 50k miles on it, he says $300 for it if your interested

What year?

[Damkid]

He told me but I can't remember off hand, if I remember right he said it was a factory non-intercooled engine, like from a merkur, if you want I can get you his email address and you can talk to him directly

[citizen caine]

That will work. I'm looking at another one already, but we are looking for a certain year.
Thank you.

WE GOT THE CAR PULLED OUT OF THE SNOW, TONIGHT WE START TO RIP IT APART!!

[citizen caine]

Well I had the boys from www.enmotionperformance.com out to the house this weekend.
We went over the build steps and everything is now planned and our direction is clear.

What we are about to do will probably make most of you shake your heads.

The 2.3 SVO or merkur engines have been known to make 500hp on stock blocks before. I wish they were easy engine swaps for festivas.
