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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

Is this thing moving slower than my barely moving junk?

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.

What kinda car is that again? It looks pretty big and slow to me.

What do you expect the curb weight to be?
