I think I read you have the 322 bottom end? 5.0 block stroked out?


Im thinking of buying the ford racing block and doing my own internals...

Nope he has stock block stroker no big bores. Man I wish it was a 322ci. I think we're going to be doing an NA RGR 322ci soon and it will be game on for NA times

I have a money tree, but it takes about 40-50 hours a week watering and taking care of it.

[Chris06GT]

Yeah, put one of them behind the wheel one time.....

You'll get it man...driving it will get you there....All I have driven is 5-speed cars...Love them at the track...I know auto's can be more consistent...just not as fun...A car with good drivetrain, and 6500 launches....nothing like it....

Yep, JPC is top notch....I have spoke to Tommy numerous time's about engine combo's....Just haven't pulled the trigger on anything yet....

I know auto's can be more consistent....

I have to disagree . It's the driver that makes it consistent.

just not as fun...A car with good drivetrain, and 6500 launches....nothing like it...

Now I agree.

I agree, but when your not a good driver the auto is more spot on.
