Talking Hp on the cheap

Grasshopper, you must have balance. hp un-applied is $ up in smoke! Running gear as a total package has it's own limitations. hp/tq + clutch +trans+rear-diff+ratio+BRAKES= beyond $ on hand. N.O.S. is hp on the cheap. Forced induction (S.C. or Turbo) can be done on a stock motor with low dollars. How long will it go "fast" is realative to parts used. Nascar and NRHA both feild full cards on race day with unlimited $. The full feild NEVER ends a Sunday with out blown engines! I was raised on bow tie powered cars. Gm is cheaper per $ than Ford. Ford is greatly cheaper than mopy dope
