I have been threatening for some time to pull my car onto the rack for a once over, but I just can't face not driving it. My ol' cleveland finally has an issue, it looks like I broke an oil ring. Performance is still good but when I let off after a romp, it's a smoker.
I have decided once and for all to go with the dart/eagle 427 windsor. My builder tells me without even trying we should be around 550HP. We decided without slicks or a rigid chassis, and the fact that I just drive my car around town w cheap rear tires. There will probably not be ZF issues at 600HP and 550 ft lbs since these cars are not hole shot/gear banging cars. A good feed of throttle is all that is required.
Is anyone else out there living happily under the conditions of 600HP and 550 ft lbs ??
Thanks, Paul...
