So, when I got back from deployment I picked up a shell with a roll cage in it and have since been building up the suspension and reinforcing the chassis. Originally intending to make it a weekend only track star I recently found out that both of the drag strips in Phoenix have closed. And as of right now they have no plans on reopening them anytime soon.
Here's the question, my buddy Bob runs a shop out of his barn, been doing it for 33 years restoring Fords and building race cars. Damn good at it too. Well he has a 572 CID Big Block (CHEVY) motor that he recently picked up a set of John Kasse Super Cobra JET heads for.
The engine will make a retarded amount of HP and even more TQ, but still be streetable and he can build it to even handle boost that I can add on at a later day. (procharger is in the future) BUT ITS A FRICHEN CHEVY ENGINE!
Sooooo would you?
Here's a pic of the car two years ago, I don't have anything updated as were waiting to install everything once we have the engine ready so that we can pick a spring rate.
