Who's jumping to conclusions? It was a joke, you know like sarcasm? take a breath dude.

Venomantidote95

a nitrous cam slow them down a lot on the motor but, will be easier on it while on the gas.

which track do you race at in AL?

Venomantidote95

Mostly on the street, but i go to barbour county more than any other i go to cottonwood once in a while, i have been to montgomery but not with a car, i`m going next weekend to the season opener to watch!

Where are you from down here???

TrimDrip

I live in Northwest Alabama in small town called Vernon. I do go to a few different tracks though. I want to go to Montgomery to watch a Pro-Mod race this year.

i actually did live right outside of Montgomery at Millbrook about ten years ago.

If you go on Dragcoverage.com you will get all the race events from around here and lots more!!

I'm a cheap SOB, and I don't have plans to have this motor in the car for long. I will be building a 351w punched out to a 408 with all the bells and whistles eventully.

Once that is ready I will spray the biggest shot my nitrous kit will support, and run with that until the stock block lets go.

The 408 will get a custom grind, and I wont be cheap, even if it means taking forever to build the motor.


I just saw the extra $200 above this cam to go custom was wasted money at this point, on this build.

Ok i hear yah on that, but as i always say to each his own, i dont judge people on there decisions hell after all it is there car!!

So far i have i have 3270$ in the pics above i have about 1182$ more in engine parts alone to go, then 1238 on electronics minus the dyno time! so engine overall cost 4002$ and with electronics roughly 5300 plus dyno costs!

The engine cost me roughly 3000$ less than a crate engine of the equal cuin and topend!

FMS-M-6007-C347 8600$

edl-45373 10,449$

Granted you get the 2000$ block with either purchase i am still way ahead of the game!
This is my belief you can spend a ton of money on this stuff and break it and shot your self in the head then, or you can do it like i do and be able to rebuild asap!

ALL engines will break eventually! just depends on how much you wanna be out!

I have checked on most of the crate engine balancing jobs and there between 2 grams and 20 grams out when there done, i had mine done at my local shop and it is to 0 grams out i am friends with the owner and his brother whom does the balancing, i get to watch the whole process, pretty awsome, when you get to grams 20 or less isnt much out (you wont feel it) but he believes when you pay for a balance job you should get a balanced assembly that means 0 fianl spin up on the machine!

I cant wait to be done i hope to go into the 6`s in the 8th mile, prolly wont do it n/a but with some gas i dont believe it will be hard to acheive the goal!
