I was gonna build it but i belive i mostly stock small block will be plenty its not gonna have that much weight to it! What you guys think?

WV junkman · « **Reply #11 on:** May 19, 2012, 06:24:40 PM »

Mostly stock should be fine. If you want to do a little to it some head work and a cam is your best bet.

i have a bone stock 302 in my 27 chevy and it goes fast enough to get downright spooky
it is 2340 lbs with a full tank and me in it.

Life is good when your power to weight ratio is right

I am constantly surprised how quick my little 307 stocker is when it's motivating a mere 2000 lbs around. And just wait 'till I get the other two carbs rebuilt!!!

And don't let the Chevy haters bug ya - inexpensive is what rat rodding is all about! Flatheads are dogs, hemis are heavy, if you wanna go fast, get a small block Chevy!

Kool. Nothing like a swap meet to come up with a part or two that will work and that you were not looking for.There fun to just walk and haggle.

hotwheels · « **Reply #23 on:** July 21, 2012, 10:26:05 AM »

Wow, that is coming together nicely.....

nubby · « **Reply #24 on:** July 21, 2012, 10:35:37 AM »
