:-) .. no doubt, SBC 350s are cheaper than dirt here.. fully rebuild for 800ish .. junk yard price 200 and you rebuild it how you want..

next up is a turbo400 tranny and some gears :-)

10:1 lol, can you even find gas with enough octane to make it run right?

Opt for a 383 stroker

And sorry to hear about your car. Ive been thru that a few times

93oct is fine for 10:1 .. i ran the same ratio in my old plymouth

when you start getting higher like 12:1 youll run into detonation on 93oct
