Little background: in high school (1996) my dad bought a super nice 1955 Chevy 210. 350sbc, 4 speed, 10 bolt rear end and riding on weld drag lites.

Fast forward to today - i am the proud owner of exact same car. The 350 had a different cam and heads etc installed but its in need of a rebuild and honestly - this thing is slow!


So what I am after - a multipurpose street/strip/(possible) track car. I work 10 minutes from blackhawk farms. I live 15-20 minutes from byron dragway.

I take nice country roads to work.

Is it possible to build a mid 9 second pro touring car that could also turn some laps on a road course or is this just unrealistic?


The other choice
565 bbc with 6 speed and spray
6.0L lsx with either single 80mm or twins and 6 speed.

it has to be a 6 speed!

Discuss or feel free to flame away. (ill add a pic later when im not at work)


budget: not sure
