Raced friends 501 CI caddy powered 79 TA
Well i finally got to race my friends 79 Trans Am. He put a 501 cubic inch caddy motor in it. The motor is all stock but the intake, carb and headders. I only beat him by a car. If i had put my drag radials on i would have beaten him by maybe a couple of cars. His car is only 3000 pounds with that big motor in it!!!!!!!!!!!! I am suprized that it ran that good. Just goes to show you what cubic inches can do.  The only problem he has with it is he cant turn it past 4800. I cant wait to see what it will do with a cam and heads.
