Turk,

You are right...the ability to drive fast is much more important than an engine that will do it. Anyone who has ridden with a real driver can attest to that fact. Dralle could kick my butt with a 200 hp car.

Keith,

The car on e-bay right now does not have a 427 chassis under it. it is the standard 289 chassis. However, we are contemplating...

Got Snake,

There is no problem with a 351 engine in the e-bay car. I would, however, personally recommend the 427 chassis under a 289 body for that combination though as the chassis is much stiffer for the added HP. Unfortunately, we don't make many of those cars.
