Now as you guys speak of having more money then our brains,
I would like to get me 67 Camaro, install 69 Camaro rear sway bars onto it since 69 Camaro launches the best back then down the quarter mile. Then overhaul 350 small block engine with modern technology to improve the true power with 3.55 or 3.42 with positraction rearend.
67 Chevy Nova II with supercharged corvette 350 sm blk engine backed up by custom built transmission that can manage 600+ hp that runs with hwy rearend gears such as 3.08.
55 Belaire with a big horsepower pumping out of a 406 small block, powerglide, and 4.88 rear for cement digging down the street.
My father grew up hard way becoming professional mechanic, had lots of classics on hand before I was born. He had 55 and 57 Belaire, 66 Nova, 73 Corvette with bored 400, 69 Chevelle SS and by the time I was around, he had a 69 Impala with 327 mean engine in it. He had to sell them all off becuz of 1970s money problems nationwide to keep the house raising us boys. He decided to get a family car and got bored not having a mean street car so he put in a 350 small block bored to 369 (0.060) and put in his customized number camshaft, 400 crankshaft... drove it for years until about three years ago the engine retired. He installed a 406 engine with 350 long journal crankshaft, his own numbered camshaft, fuel injection, 3.55 posi rear, stock SUV exhaust heads with customized dual exhaust system (2.75) and is driving it on and off nowadays. He clocked it at 10.33 seconds in the quarter mile and I borrowed it one time drove it at 75 mph on the hwy smashed the gas pedal, the car danced for a while until I hit 95 mph. It runs like a jet in a four door 79 Malibu. Yes a street sleeper. eh.
I used to own 79 Malibu with three different 350 engines, two broken rearends, twisted the frame, so we took it apart. threw it out...kept the extras for his other 79 malibu and my brother has a 78 malibu with 410 small block street race car runs flat 10s. We all do not believe in using Nitrous. He currently also own 94 and 96 Impala SS. My brother owns 99 Pontiac GTX, upgraded brake system, chips, transmission, and he clocked it at 12.96. He wants to bore it, and few more upgrades but no time to do so until he does. I own nothing in similar until I have the money to. I got four kids to raise first. Then I will start looking. eh.
