That's really what I'm thinking about. Lightweight, potential to handle well, and an aftermarket full of umpteen of everything you need. It's best I keep it streetable. Maybe I'll go the supercharger/turbo route, and just make sure I build a block strong enough to take it (I trust the 351W block more because it's cast much stronger).

I think you so go with a fox body stang but keep it fuel injected ftw... :happy055:

Because A bodies have the aesthetics of a dog turd :D If I did a mopar, it would definately be a coke bottle Charger, probably the best looking car of the era.

The other reason is because I'm married and I have a daughter ;) One is going to be expensive enough, not even counting the necessary tranny, rear axle, and chassis upgrades I'll have to do to be able to handle the extra power. The builds somewhat oppose one another.

cause mopar sucks...right KiKi???

lol...j/k

I would look for an amc javelin, place a 428 in it, screw the AMC fans, screw the ford fans and light a fire under your butt

Only things that hold me off of 2 are

1: With a solid roller cam, I'm going to have to constantly set valve lash.

2: Obviously the gas mileage will be crap with that much motor and that much power.

But still, 650hp on pump gas is ohhhhh so tempting :D

#2 just seems alil more enticing to me....

I wish I knew anything about cars and was able to help you decide :)
