I need big block combos and 1/4mile times!
 
Im in the planning stage of my 427BB build up. Id like to see what everyone is running and their combos so I can get an idea of how badly Ill beat you in a race :D
Ok Im just kidding, but Id like to see about what Id run.

low 84 02-18-2003 01:33 AM

so what is the question? do you want our engine combos, or BB engine combos for you or what hp you need to get a certain 1/4 time?

Big Paul 02-18-2003 04:37 AM

Hey Tom, are you gonna be comparing between others and the DD2K I gave you? :D

Tom 02-18-2003 12:21 PM

Low- I want anyone who runs a big block in their 73-87 to post how its built and what 1/4mile times they've run with it.

Paul, yup thats the idea :D
Im going to play with some different cams though and see if I can squeak out some more power.

chris and jeff are the only ones running bb's off the top of my head, and neither one of their trucks are finished. there might be a couple outhers running them.

bigblock73 02-18-2003 02:04 PM

Tom, no matter how much HP you make, I will always be faster than you!! :D :D

no really, I cannot wait to get the truck together...I am curious to find out myself! I am HOPING for high 12's, anything slower will be a dissapointment IMO. :(

You still know what mine was and the time it ran, right?

Tom 02-18-2003 04:04 PM

yeah chirs, I have that info saved. Your the top dog right now, Im aiming to bring you down. Since your going for more of a twisty turny truck, that shoundt be TOO hard :D
