    Help me get into the 12's for cheap

    I appreciate all the replies! If I pulled a junkyard Magnum 360 with stock and probably cracked heads and added a crosswind intake, headers and my 600 Holley carb would I have anywhere close to enough power? I could buy the motor, oil pan, new balancer for LA style pulleys, electric fuel...

    Help me get into the 12's for cheap

    One of my goals with my 73 Swinger is to have it run in the 12's. High 12's would suffice. My best run is 14.8 at 90 mph. The car is currently a 318 with what I believe is a stock bottom end. 1 5/8 summit headers, Performer intake and Holley 600 carb. 3:55 suregrip 8 1/4 and I believe a...

    Near stock 73 Swinger first time at the track

    Thanks for the replies. I definitely want to get a suregrip rearend and when budget allows maybe some other performance modifications. I still have a lot of work to do (body, paint, interior) to get the car to where it’s a respectable looking driver. I’ve only driven four passes down the track...

My car is a 73 Swinger, stock 904 trans and rear end. The engine is an internally stock 318, but with headers, Performer intake and a...
