521 Street Motor Torque Monster Build

[Excaliber]

...I still can't hook up Goodyear slicks with a well built but not "killer" side oiler. I get traction somewhere around 85 mph. 1st and 2nd are a joke, up in smoke.

I haven't got a clue why you folks want a killer torque motor, just doesn't make sense to me, I must be missing something. Recently an FFR with a 331 Windsor and dual turbos ran a 10.03 at a 140 something, with street drag tires, here at the local track. I ran that night as well, the track was pretty slippery or he would have been in the 9's. Don't think he needs a bottle, but we talked about it.

For me anyway, and this may apply to others, that since I don't race my cobra, a torque monster is just plain fun on the street. I love the feel & sound of throttling the motor. Also, if you can hook up with slicks, TQ is what gets you doing, not HP.

This link is when I sold my 428 FE,....... made just for the buyer.
