WHAT???????PKRWUD IS NOT TELEPATHIC??????Crap! Well, anyway guys...I've been thinking about doing the following, tell me what you think...I'm on a low budget since I work 45 minutes a week at a gas station, and I finish the hour bagging groceries fifteen minutes a week. I just bought a used 1991 LX 4-cylinder car that has 287,000 ONE OWNER MILES!!! I got it for $25.00! What a deal eh? As soon as I find a frame shop that will unmangle it for nothing, I'll be on the road in no time. So, what do you guys think of these mods? If I can get a few minutes overtime here and there, I should have these mods done by my birthday (my 87th birthday). Here goes:
Chevrolet 632 c.i. 8-71 blown, .800" lift solid roller, billet steel ultralightweight, super tuff crankshaft with 14k gold journals, on pump gas of course
Chrysler 3-speed from my grammy's Valiant, should hold up, my friends said it was a tough tranny
I'll keep the stock rear end, I shouldn't need anymore than the 2.73's with that much power
I have about $124.67 right now, I'm almost at my goal. Do you think I can run in the nines witht his setup? Oh, and of course I'll have a 80mm throttle body on the speed density motor. What size oil pressure gauge would you use? How much air pressure do I need in the front right tire if I will be carrying two passengers in the rear when it's raining? My girlfriend weighs 121 pounds, do you think that's too much? I figure if the atomic weight of boron is less than 4, I should be able to hit the rev limiter while making pancakes in Jamaica. Thanks for all your help guys!!! I also just got this "5.0 POWER" tee-shirt, got that sold it to me said I should pick up four tenths in the 1/4 with it, not too bad for $75.00 don't you think?!?!?
