hmmm......I happen to know where that can be made to happen

......
I don't have enough pennies yet.
i can see the car with a blown big block though.
I guess I am sort of old school. i do dig the new technology and the obscene numbers that these turbo charged, injected motors are making but I just love the sound of a blown block lettin it all hang out.
As Mr. VanZant so elegantly stated... I'm a simple...... kinda man....

You ant to know what is sick though?
I was talking to a buddy from up in PA. last night and his engine builder built a twin turbo, injected sbc that dyno'd at a little over 2200 or 2300 hp!!!!
Anyone can own that motor or one just lke it for about $26K..
Way out of my league but man... I have seen mountain motors making less than that go for way more coin.
