My Dad has a '72 Vega which is his project. Him and I were talkin about puttin a motor into it today. He thought up a 350 small block and I thought of a 454 big block.

what's the purpose of the car to be? if your looking for a lot of power and have the money to spend then the 454. If something good on gas, budget build for power then the 350.

My mommy, she loves to do that shit. Her favorite is tuning carbs though. Trick's not whose building the engine but who is doing doing the back half kit. Speaking of which I need to talk to Mike and call graham today.

The answer to your question is you know who is building it. Sadly it is in a little bit different form but I am happy if all goes according to plan with my street engine.

with a big block your going to have to tube it with some big slicks and and lots of parts to get it hooked up. still might have to tube it with the small block and done right it will be just as fast with a small block.

baahahaha, you dont have to tub shit to make it go fast, look at the wagon it ran 9.50s alllll day long on 8' wide tires, and got the bumper with 8' wide street tires

I would go with the 454 big block. Thats just my opinion, more cubic inches more power heh heh. Put a big ass Weiand blower on it and haul ass! :supz:

Dude are you fucking retarded? You talked shit about a guy with a fast Mustang, and you have a slow Mustang? You're eventually gonna get your ass beat, and like Scott said, all you have ever done and all you will ever do is hide behind a computer. I've never seen you at a race, and you even told me that you would show up at my work to beat my ass, nice job at not showing. Pussy.

LOCKED.

Grow up 10.5. If you had said something like that to my girlfriend you would be in a coma right now. Remember that everyone you talk shit about lives RIGHT HERE in cedar rapids. You better hope scott doesn't get ahold of me because not only do I know who you are but I know where you live.
