      • First time to the track with the car, no diff and I didnt want to break parts so I was running higher tire pressure and leaving soft. It will go 7.20s or so when I get it dialed in (low 11s/high 10s in the quarter mile)

        • So, you're actually going to drift this car? I keep thinking about the fuel sloshing around in the float bowls. Let me know if you run into any problems.

          • ^ ryan hampton's 69 camaro used a carb and didnt seem to have any problems with it

            • I'm going to be using a 600CFM Edelbrock carb on my build. Stadium and other off road trucks use carb.s and see more sloshing than a drift car will.

              • I didn't realize Hampton stayed with a carb. Just had some concerns- that's all.

                I do remember some offroad vehicles having issues with floats spilling over. Maybe it depends on how the floats are hung.

                Glad to hear it works Banner.

                  I haven't built it yet. Just got the chassis Sunday. I'll have the engine by just after Christmas.

                  The engine is a Target Master 350 C.I. that's .040" over and has around 20,000 miles on it. It's also got Z28 valve springs and a hotter cam than an R.V. I think I'll hit 350HP with ease.

                  • Yeah, I was able to get 400hp out of the last 350ci I built using Vortec heads and a decent cam. You can contact me further if you need any help. The best part was how little it cost.

                        I've been running a 750 Holley for two years now on my Malibu with no trouble.

                                Those Hookers look kinda familliar... Are they Impala SS LT1 headers? Also, let us know how that EFI works, will you? I have a buddy who's REALLY interested in putting one of those systems on his car. Thanks!
