[QUOTE="ANGREY, post: 15875769, member: 188865"] I think it's a number of reasons. 1) The 350 as a starter/donor vehicle is MUCH more expensive than just a run of the mill GT. You're already narrowed down to the number of owners willing to completely go off in a different direction because for a lot of people, the cost of the 350 is a significant investment. 2) The 350 is a purpose built car. I think a lot of people just decide there's better routes to make a "muscle" car or a strip car than modding a 350. 3) A modified 350 becomes a tweener. The car won't be a competitive or formidable strip car (at least not for what you throw into it). A modified 350 will be "okay" as a strip car and less driveable as a track car. What it will be is an awesome street (roll) racing car, but most of the guys who sunk this much money into a track focused car aren't really interested in that. The more I drive the car, the more I'm convinced I'm just gonna leave it alone and not add a blower. [/QUOTE]
