precisely. i could easily pull this off with hoard of parts i've got rat holed away in the used power & speed equipment warehouse, but if i didn't have that leg up parts wise or the build was on a short time line so the luxury of waiting for a deal wasn't in the cards? this doesn't get done...

i don't find this to be acceptable and i wouldn't run it that way. it may *look* fine, but you'll find that the steering will likely bind in one direction and "whip" in the other-- the inputs at the wheel will be different from side to side and no longer predictable. more than likely it will...

i love the discourse in threads like these. the gnashing of teeth, the rending of garments, the mewling cries: tHaT's t0o mUcH m0nEy!!!11!! yeah, it's carrying a little bit of the fried burger roadkill tax, but not that much of one. don't think so? here's an exercise for ya: put it to paper...

i didn't think 15, but i also didn't think 4 if you're into that sort of thing, it's got okay bones and a chunk of change in hardware.

ahem...

you can get some .027 cometics.... $$$

muh-huh and HR is there to protect you... when i was on the repair side of it, i had to haggle with insurance companies constantly. just because you didn't see it happening, doesn't mean that it's not happening behind the scenes.

i'll DM you...

i mean... if i could find a lo-miles good condition used one with matching lifters i wouldn't hesitate to run it. though you can usually find them new in the 100~130 range kicking around so unless the used one was damn near free, the juice ain't really worth the squeeze there. and yes, i...

because of your application i don't think there's really a "wrong" option here; it just comes down to whether you want to have something that's a little more itchy out of the hole and you're okay with spending that money, or just keeping the 727 and bumping up a gear ratio.

welp. looks like it's time to sell my 72 duster! the doors work and there's no peek-a-boo roof option. exactly half the price of that. limited time only for FABO gold members and extra 10% off! *laughs*

you didn't say what else the combo is... so i'll assume a stock converter, manifolds and a rear gear that is sub 3.55 here's my suggestions: melling 23103 it's kind of a riff on a stock 360 2bbl cam but with a tick more duration and tighter LSA. it's great with stock components and you won't...

of course not! slants don't make enough power to realize any serious heat! *ducks*

per tire rack the BFG's and Coopers (i'm assuming that you're running one of those two) spec out at 26.1" the 3.23's would be 60mph @ 2500, 72mph @ 3000 the 2.94's would be 66mph @ 2500, 79mph @ 3000 the 3.91's would be 50mph @ 2500, 59mph @ 3000 depending on what you're trying to do with...
