  • Rule is: When you break it, go big in replacement, right?

    Thanks Paul (greenbullit) for always making time and space for my ride. More than that though, I appreciate the time you take in explaining things and working within my budget!

    Thank you Brooks for knowing my driving habits well enough to suggest our new purchase:

    351 windsor shortblock




    Maybe..... just maybe this motor will stay together for me. *woot woot*


    I’m too slow for the fast cars and too fast for the slow cars.

          You guys are quite welcome, I'm glad to see that engine get some use instead of collecting dust!

          FWIW, My car ran 7.50's with a VERY similar shortblock.

            When you said big, I figured you were going big block big.

              Valid point.

              We just couldn't pass up this deal though.

                            My 351 low compression motor with some good breathing AFR Heads and a turbo cam made 340 HP and 375 TQ before putting the turbo on. It wanted to breathe! Around 4000 RPM it really took off but was limited by the cam.... A properly matched setup for N/A would be a blast I'm sure!
