RE: Stuck and need some help from my V6 buds
No, because you cant have a carb in newer model cars... or at least thats my understanding from some law i read i think.. maybe its just Washington emission crap.. But Sleeper is right, its exactly what i need.. im tired of this electrical stuff thats slowing my progress. And i believe my friend has a 305 but im not sure, reguardless hes still lookin for more power.

Well, remember, you still have a lot of tinering to do with a carb, which will make it a little easier, but not much. In other words, you trade in the software for a screwdriver and lots of patience.

Boy, oh boy, going for the classics right off the bat. Plain and simple here, all of those cars, while OK, are restoration project cars, not something intended to be on the road day in and day out. I would just take a guestimation to say that to get the Mustang restored enough to drive everyday would cost around 10K, the Camaro (fugly as hell to me) about 10-15K, and the other two, I have no idea asto what to guess. Probles with those cars is gonna first off be the rust, then as a side job the paint would have to be done after the rust is fixed so you don't look like an *** driving down the street. Then you're on to fixing up the engine and tranny, not to modify, just to keep it running. Serriously, classic cars require a lot of time, money, and effort to keep them running and to get them to streetable status. Also, while all of those cars may be decently quick their handleing is gonna suck royal *****. You're gonna have to do some very nice suspension upgrades just so you can control the car in and out of turns.

The 71 looks good, but will need some major interior restoration, and the body will also need some work in the engine bay, and god knows where else.
The other Camaro doesn't look bad, but with only two pics advertising the body and not the rest of the car, I'd be worried.
