Dan, do a turbo setup!! A turbo EFI small block would be the king of drivability AND killer power. You could run 9s in a Maverick without too much trouble (well at least have the power to run 9s, the rest is up to you ) and still get decent mileage and good drivability. Not sure how keen you are on EFI, and it does require tuning time and a dyno. But once its right its so right..
Ok Dan I will ask you know..........How many cubes do you want:confused: did I convince you well enuff even with it crapping out:confused: I found the problem after you left the battery is junk I will get it warrantied in the morning and it should be back to it's old self.......oh yeah and by the way.....I hope you liked the ride
Yeah, the RIDE!!! No other motor is going in my project but a big block Ford. Roberts car really got me back to basics. No replacement for displacement. Roberts car hits it and hits it hard. Launches like he has made a couple hundred passes with it. To say I am impressed would be an understatement. Thanks Robert!!! was great to see ya, and was good to talk with some real gearheads live and in person. Dan
Thanks Dan....the battery helped but I think I still have a plug breaking down....will change them out tomorrow.......we will have several maverick gear heads to figure it out Jim Larson(purple 70) made it here just before 9 as did Matt and Mark.......John Ford is in Rolla and will be here in the morning.
