:l[IMG] had to open the window to let the smoke out

What you running matey??

baby 305 small block chevy,3 speed auto chevy box n cant remember if it hadda 3.08 axle then or a 2.85

And what sorta times are you running mate?

not sure to be honest only run her once n didnt get a timing ticket got loads n loads of wheel spin off the line (even went side ways ) high 15s atta guess .......... needs a lsd n some slicks n then if she hooks up ok ........... a bigger motor although shes not built for drag racing ........ just to bug bmw brivers on the motor way

Sounds mate

You ever thought of some big wheels to help as well as an LSD??

When was that pic taken and what was the event? Did you beat the Jag? Your car looks standard, i bet that catches people out! There is an LSD up on E bay at the moment. As for the Tyres well mine has normal Vitesse wheels and tyres and just hooks up and goes. I got off the line much quicker and smoother than my friends Scooby with 4x4!

I was told by Chris of RPi fame, that any yank blocks were a relative waste of time as they are very heavy, being made of cast iron! And that they upset the handling. Although i bet an SD1 with an LS1 set back a bit would be awsome as a MK2 Granada at Retro at santa pod proved recently by posting 9 seconds something, was it?

Yes,i have been of the same opinion as Chris for sometime (mainly because he knows his stuff) although
i have never been in one with a yanky motor

I belive 'twinplenumdan' is wanting to put an LS1 motor into one
With a supercharger

Thats some real sleeper look there. How does the SBC fit into the engine compartment?

piccy was taken early in 2002 at a rwyb.went up there to help a mate out with hes car,cos he wanted to try out some new suff before before the season started
jag won

thanxs k5 seen the slipper on e-bay

as for yanky motors being a waste of time....... no coment

the cars just for a bit of fun at the weekends
there was an old 78 yanky sadan one side of the yard n a 2lt rover the other side,n they kinnda came together one warm sunny evening
yep motor is heavy all cast,(blew the front shocks,first time it sat in there)
but it wasnt put together for anything serious in mind,just a cheap project (cos most of the bits were laying around)

but she drives fine,even with standard 3500 brakes
never noticed any handling probs

they are a tight fit,sumps just off the cross memmber,n airfilter just touches the bonnet

being more sensible

You should get some close ups done and post them on here along with a full spec. I wouldn´t mind going up against your car at Pod!

yeah sure k5 sounds like fun
maybe the retro bash next year.was gonna go this year but couldnt make it

....................................................... scurrys off ta garage ta build new 350

if you're going to build a 350, why not build a 383 won't cost much more if you already have the block in bits.
