Anyways, look kid I am going to be running a 93 Mustang Gt hatchback with a 460 and possible 6-71 blower. No NOS is going to touch this engine. I am still shootting for 9sec 1/4mi times. You can do it without the NOS. Plus being only 15 like you say I feel that you are too young to play with the big boys on NOS. Chit I am 31 and still scared chitless of playin with the big boys on the track. You will learn a lot from these guys. Just dont get upset when they say something you dont like.
im trying to build me a 18 degree 400SBC but i was told that u can take a 355 engine and out run a 18 degree..is that true??
From what I have read on this forum I would stay away from, the SBC 400. I read that they cannot handle the power and will split. So you can try a 355 or go ahead and jump up to a BBC.
Honestly I am new to racing scene as far as engines and what not but I am sure that these guys will help steer you in the right direction. I am just trying to keep my Ford a true Ford with a BBF in it so I can run in the Manufacture classes as well as the Mustang classes.
well then i will stay away for them then..because i hate to spend all that money and it mess up.my nephew has a 355 motor i built last year and we done some trading on a 406 i use to have so the 355 was my sons and i built it for him and my son robert and anthony done some trading on the red chevy pickup anthony had and then anthony had the 355 and i bought the 406 motor off his dad and then me and anthony done some trading on the 406..so i now got the 355 back that i built my son last year..So i own the 355 now and im thinking just going with it and i have a Brand New Set of 215 intake runner Dart heads im putting on it..its going to be a full solid roller motor.. guess im just going to stay with the 355 now..im not a BBC guy but my son loves them and he keeps on telling me to get a BBC but i dont want one..
