Alright, I've had enough!!!
« on: July 20, 2010 - 09:38:06 PM »
I know I've been wishy washy over the last year about what to do with my Cuda in anticipation of the arrival of my twins. I've gone from thoughts of selling it to taking it apart and restoring it. Here recently I keep reading threads about my big block is going to do this and my big block is going to do that. Well being that I am a speed freak I've had enough. Right now I'm working on a deal to buy a resto block and from there I'm coming after you boys!!! All 3800lbs of small block power!!! Concider youselves warned (you know who you are) and yes a Dana 60 in my future too. Keep in mind I say all this in good humor and comradery. :icon16: I just need some motivation!!! :2thumbs: :stirpot:
1972 BS23 H code Cuda, B5 blue, 340 streched to 416 cu in, 727 w/ 8 3/4 rear, 7.23 in the 1/8 mile and 11.38@117mph in the 1/4 on drag radials   Under restoration! Coming soon... 440cuin R3 Indy SMALL BLOCK monster!!!!

Cool, I look forward to seeing your progress. Obtaining 2 more seconds out of a small block that weighs 3800 lbs deserves to be noticed anywhere your at you can go as fast as your wallet allows :ylsuper:

Dave,

"I'll be your huckleberry"

There is NO WAY im getting beat by a NA small block!  Dave I will put you on the list behiend Jason and Matt first come first serve, I dont care if you have a Dana 100 it still wont be enough to cross the line before me.


Just picture me playing Steve Buscemi charachter in Billy Maddison!  This is my list on the wall as I lay on the couch with my lipstick preped.

1. Jason   :aarg:
2. Matt    :aarg:
3. Dave    :aarg:


Yes this is all in fun, but I will be seeing you girls at Qtr Aces and may the best Mopar win.  After we beat on eachother we should go find some Fords and bowtie faggs to beat on.

Im glad you have decided to keep your car bro, yours is one of my favroites on the site!

One of the best known Mopar drag racers of the late 70's/early 80's (in the Tidewater Virginia area) ran a 1968 Barracuda that had a 340 small block that he had running in the 8's in the quarter mile. Not the 1/8th, yes I said the 1/4 mile. It was a bad azz Mopar. I wished he was still around, but a heart attack ended his life many years ago. So more power to you in your endeavor for more power..arrrrh!! Mopars rule!! :2thumbs:

Small blocks rule.  :burnout:  Don, You know my buddy Steve will be at Quarter Aces with his 318 Duster that runs 96 MPH in the 1/8. I saw him spank a Hemi Chally.    :stirpot:      :popcorn: :popcorn:  Maybe he'll bring his Demon, it's a second faster.  :naughty:  Don, you know I love you.   :cheers:
