oh so close......

My buddy Randy was at the same choice-point YEARS ago. We 'rescued' a couple 360 cores out of the back of a barn on a 20 degree below zero winter which you'd think would have solidified the direction he would take. A couple weeks later I talked him into an 11:1 451 low-deck we built for $4500 carb to pan with a lot of free-work from me. (we're close friends and trade often) It ran 134mph thru 3" mufflers ON MOTOR. It's just hard to beat a BB when it comes to bang for the buck.


I have a little under 7500.00 in my R3 422 including everything but headers and carb, and I got those super cheap. It’s gone 9.42@138mph with a solid lifter cam for five years of bracket racing with almost zero maintenance. I had a 1150 alcohol carb done by APD because by myself my dreams of trying heads up stuff is slowly disappearing. Stephen would probably kill me if I bracket raced that car as he’s been trying to buy it back but at this point I have to run the car.
