Oh yea, RRR has the green light to come and play. What the heck. He probably has one of the most lethal vehicle & combo here so far. My low compression 400 is a DOG! And one that barf's! A lot....
LOL... ain't this the truth!!!!!!!:stop:LOL, I have not a clue! To busy working and raising children to have car fun.
Rani, you and I are from similar boats. I have allways had a 4spd manual car to have my fun in. This will be my first automatic car to actually run in any type of contest. Street or track.
Hence my question, "How DO you instal a manual valve body?"

* This sounds great! How about another with stock trim?full interior,no headers, just looking stock under the hood etc.. I love this idea!From top to bottom, seems like a good place to start;
IMO, the car should also be street worthy.
Scoop, anything goes
Air cleaner; Anything goes.
Carb.
A single 4bbl. to keep it simple and cheap.
Stock and stock replacement carbs are what I would like to see. In example;
Edelbrock carbs, basic Holley carbs. 4160/4150 & Avengers. Rebuilt TQ's, QJ's
No Pro built or after market carbs like AED.
Modify it yourself and be a good fella, start a thread and show us how! I wanna see this baby on your bench being done. And so do the new guys!
Intake,
any 4bbl. will do. Mods? Same as above.
Heads.
Run the heads the car came with if you can. I say IF you can because we all do not have what it came with. But it should be a OE head.
Swapping heads is OK. IE: LA for Magnum heads
Stock or replacement style valves
no porting or die grinder work
any valve job is OK
backcutting valves OK
Mill the head until your happy or have a door stop from going to far
I would like to see stock rocker arms, but, .....I'm not just so dead sure about dis-allowing roller rockers. What say you?
Camshaft; What ever you shove in there! LOL!
(While I don't see roller cams cheap, they can be used. What say you?)
Exhaust, what ever you installer have. Manifolds or headers!
Ignition; Any
I say, No electric water and fuel pumps UNLESS you swapped in a Magnum engine (Which has no provision for a mechanical pump)
OR is this not good?
Trans,
Manual, scatter shield OK
Single disc clutch
OE trans 3 or 4 speed
Auto; No Manual valve bodies or trans brakes
Shift kits, deep trans pan, extra cooling, high stall converters OK
Rear end;
Any OE rear, any gear, swap for sure grips & bigger rear, OK
(And makes sense but if you wanna be a one leg warrior and hero, go for it.)
Suspension;
OE and Cal Tracs
Body;
Any hood scoop will do.
Remove and replace what you want/need to. Fiberglass parts are the norm right?!?!?
No Lexan
Interior; Full street like. Not gutted to high heaven. You could loose the back and passenger seat.
OK people! What do you think of that? Basic, easy, readily seen on the street and tracks, nothing crazy or over the top. Kind of typical in a sense that this is what you can see 90% of the time of the road or car meets.

Look brother, here it is one more time.
Run what you brung and show the world how to go fast cheap, as cheap as possible!
Come on people!
Do you have to run the engine the car or truck came with?
* Wow sorry brother..I never ment any harm! I started off by saying great idea!! Sorry!!:glasses7:SEE!
This is where I get a little twisted by people like you looking to add to something that is actually a huge open class of only one class. This is an"Run what you brung" and modify it or not
I really thought I spelled this out as a run what you have and show people what you got and sis to go faster and to do it as cheaply as possible!
OMG!
Re read the thread and tell me how many times I stated that here and in the other thread.
ARE YOU SERIOUS THAT YOU WANT YOUR OWN SPECIAL CLASS?!?!?!
O-M-G!!!!
Look brother, here it is one more time.

Come on people! Read the thread!
I can't open your attachments^^^^
There's problems in that there above that I didn't right in and are misleading.
First: under the carb section, the electric fuel pump, I wrote nothing of the sort. There's is no limiting PSI rule for carbs or fuel injection.
Second: the octane requirement is pump gas that you get at your local gas station and available everywhere.
For some it is 91 octane, others, 93 octane. If 100 octane is available to you, realize that it is not readily avilable to everyone else and not the normal nation wide normal high octane and therefore not good to use.
I do not remember myself or anyone agreeing to the rule of a limited converter stall much less 3000.
PLEASE MAKE CORRECTIONS OR SCRAP IT FOR A REDO
THANK BUD
The one thing I didn't do but will correct and say it twice is;
Thank you! For doing that work. And for the thoughts on particapents.
Can you click on the numbers in the poll section?
I can but I do not know if that is because I am the thread starter. IF you can click on the number, it will show you how is on the list.
And just a side note, we even have some brand spankin new FABO members joining in on this. Now that's cool!
