remember the one from the mid 90s that was baby blue with a blown bbchev everyone was afraid of? gotta love the cars with a bbc people get scared.  he had so much power he did a dragster burnout! so much power he couldnt hook, but everyone ran scared when he fouled a plug they thought he would win but. track officials shut him down at the starting line! dam you gotta build it! AND BUILD IT BAD!

Put up the money for the BBC!

put the performer rpm cam and springs you can get them at any rebuilder called lt1 springs or z28 springs and the regrind cam for under $50.00 itll run allright, but save for the bigblock:)  dam do i want that car now if my wife would just let me have it! I have a race motor 4 that thing that will drop it into the 12s on the street and low11s on the track with  with slicks

Well did some work on her this weekend.  Put in my new heater core, ran new hose, and wired up the blower motor on a toggle switch with a 40A relay for now.  Also got my new 3 core copper rad in, wired up a thermostat for the electric fan.  The guy I got it from had it hard wired to stay on all the time  ==doh.  Did an oil change, switched her over to synthetic.... was gunna do the trans but my manual 3 speed dosent have a drain plug so..... yeah lol  Also got rid of the nasty air filter, pretty sure she's got a lil more power now cuz of all of it......  Now I just gotta get some wire loom and make it look a lil neater...
