+10 with everything you said

me and my friend went to look at classic stangs cause he wants a project car, we test drove a 69 coupe with a 351W in it.  it was kinda powerfull and i whitesmoked some corners but it had too bad body damage for $4000

When I read a story like this it reminds me of a question I ask myself every time I drive.

"Do I have a V8?"......."Yep"
"Am I going to use all 8 cylinders?"......."Hell yeah!!!"

If he wanted to go slow then he'd drive a Prius, you've got to let the ponies run free every now and then. Nice job, you've inspired me to buy more performance parts!

he was sqying that with a blower it means its blown,  but what he doesnt know is that alot of people buy just the blower and not the roots system or they go with a new paxton.  the blower itself has nothing to do with the supercharger.  this kid is a grade A duece

After many phone calls to great friend, Sherrif Bufford T. Pusser, now retired in Texas, I got some pictures of tne boss_dude_429 engine. The first is the pistons waiting to go in: The second is the crank assembly - note tiny little imported workers.

Here are two more pictures, the crank installed by more tiny little imported workers (tinylittleimportedworkers,com) and the completed put-put. What a task!
