As some of you may know Ive been putting together a rebuilt 350 for my car since december. Well I just got the motor in the car last month and I only need to get the fuel pressure regulator and the carb to get this thing running so I will probably have it running by next month. Well word got through the grapevine that I am close to getting it running so now everybody wants to start talking trash. There are three guys I know who are idiots they know nothing about cars and none of there friends know anything about cars so they think there cars are the fastest things in the world. Well my setup is in my sig, I will have a 3.42 posi rear with 275x60 drag radials and also I am going to have the combustion chambers on my heads opened up so I will have 9:6:1 compression not 10:1. Super Chevy had my exact bottom end with stock camel hump heads and a qjet pulling 340 hp and 411 tq so I should be around there with my ported 416's. I think this setup should run mid to high 13's. So heres what I am up agaist:
1. Dodge Dakota RT 5.9 with borla catback, chip, and 100 shot of nitrous. I beat him pretty badly with my 350 tbi before the nitrous I dont know what to expect( oh and by the way this guy thinks his catback and chip puts him at over 300 hp)
2.2000 mustang GT 5spd, bone stock except for monster tach and guages up by the drivers side window
I know this guy cant drive but I will pretend he can hit high 13's.
3. 90 LX mustang auto with 4.10 gears, headers, catted xpipe,flow masters. The guys who he bought the car from did everything to it. He wouldnt even know what was on it if the guy hadnt told him. Ive seen him run a 14.0 with this setup with a little wheel spin so if he hooks it could be in the 13's.
Well tell me what you think.

 

the rt should have over 300 with that because they came with 300 stock i believe. you havent said anything about your tranny or your car setup but i believe all are good races

 

Really the RT came with 300 hp, I thought it had like 260 or something oh well the point of him being an idiot is the fact that he thought the chip actually gave him 20 hp. Oh and my tranny is a stock 700r4 of course and I forgot to mention I will have sub frame connectors by the time we race otherwise my suspension is stock.

 

i wouldnt really worry because you have the squeeze but if you go up and race fair and square then i wouldnt talk **** to the lx maybe the gt and the rt to close to tell it wont get any traction. but if it does hmm dont know what to tell you really

 

Oh I am not talking sh*t to any of them (well not about their cars anyways). I told all three of them that it should be close, but each of them think they are going to dust my a$$. It pi$$es me off because they think they can smoke SS's and vettes when there cars arent highly modified. Anyways, thanks for the input.

 

put the carb on give 'em hell
