Are you doing any racing or shows this year or are you waiting for next year?

accually i am going to do both.... the purpose of my car is going to be show and go...i really would love to get into the 12s quarter mile time... but i also want to go to some big shows and take a trophy or two..... that would make me happy.....

next year for sure... it prolly will not move from that spot this year....[:@]

got a quote on getting the block built 1600.... so i have to save up for my down payment and then send it to the guy... i thought it was a damn good price becuase he is buying all the parts also...

Well good luck with your project. Keep us posted. That is a good price considering the guy is buying the parts. He's probably going to steal it from someone. Thats why your getting it for a steal I mean a good deal. One day you'll be at a show and you'll pop your hood and someone will walk by and say "Hey thats my block!" LOL.

Dam thats some nice HP. I deff want to see a vid of you at the track. You going to need to keep tires around. Cause you will be smoking them.
