I wouldn't take Dove heads even if they were given to me.

If you like FEs check out Jay Browns site. He won drag week a couple times with some FEs.

Almost 900hp out of a NA 519 cammer. that is serious. His 545 Highriser will be close to 1000hp NA:woot:

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out.

I think cammers are my favorite motor. Along with a few other million folks, huh? :D

I'd put one in one that looks like this. :cool:

Ah but when I see that I don't think sleeper I think 68 428cj NHRA monster.

Jay put his in this boat. http://fepower.net/Drag%20Week/dw09.html Doesn't look like a 9 sec street car.

Oh I know. :thumbsup:

Side note: tough enough trying to find pics of one, much less buy one. :)

You may have seen that crappy shell that sold for over $100K?

Not many left out of the 50 NHRA factory racers.

I got a progress picture today that really has me motivated. :thumbsup:

For anyone who likes the old school stuff here is the dual four intake I bought to try out. :D

Yea it seems that way doesn't it. The guys at RS are making lots of progress on the chassis. The motor will be on the dyno soon. And a few more surprises in the works.

I did have sense enough to abandon this.
