you need to chill out bro, either that or buy a net to catch more feelings with.

WHAT???...i think you took that outta context...i meant it as yea the tranny probably would break...but i'll just do it anyway...its kinda hard to convery tone with text

300 hp on an all motor V6, why even bother? You can put that money toward a V8 and be that much faster

its only gonna cost me around 800

hahah how, without nitrous?

bro my budget was 1000 for 11's with out the motor cost factured in, I spent 980 on cam,heads(that would still need machine work)intake and a distributor. that was soposed to be a budget build with a budget head, i spent 400 on a carb and fuel pump, and i got free valve covers(thanks again baddest434!) its going to cost me another 300 for a used 700r4 thats going to blow up and a 3000 stall, and ill still be wasting my rebuilt 700r4.

ur not gonna land a 13 second slip, or lift a wheel on $800 i suggest you save, if you MUST have a v6 get a turbo buick, if not just get a damn lt1 or ls1..

i beleive it was in this thread, but why wont a 16'' rear rim be as good as a 15''?

because you have less sidewall for the same size tire....less sidewall = less grip

3200 stall and 3.42s at that time.... there havent been any passes on the 4.10 / 4200 combo IIRC

Too wide.

the last time jimmy was to teh track was with the gears and big stall. it paid huge dividends right away too, putting his short times in the low 1.7's and gtting him into the low 13.7's with a trap sped of barely 100mph.
i am sure there is actually more to be found in jim's combination, but he has never taken the time to tune the shocks or play with spring rates.

I think his best 60' was actually a 1.77, and I am also pretty sure he never hit a 100mph trap speed N/A...

James's best NA trap is 96.38, according to his FTV6 sig
