Well qtrmiler,
I don't know why you feel that way about the 385 forum. I built my motor for well under 3K and I'm expecting about 500 fwhp. Many of the guys on there are as cheap as I am and many seem pretty open to discussion. But hey to each there own.

To put it simply, I was told I had spent so much money & I shouldn't try to help anyone. $7K on a low 9 second car? Was told my experience wasn't worth a crap? Doing 429/460's since 1979? Was also told I couldn't get a stock, non-CJ/SCJ in the 13's (13.0[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_cool.gif[/img], was repeatedly told how poor Blue Thunder heads were but still ran 10.44 at #2800 with a .520 lift cam. Other than Scott & Dave Mclain, I don't think there's anyone over there worth asking. Most just buy parts & have not done much on a dime racing. You're right this IS my opinion, but close to 25 years with big block Fords, & I doubt most guys there all put together have my experience, I believe I might know quite a few tricks they'll never know. BTW for what it's worth mt stock SCJ maked over 430 horsepower at the rear wheels & with slicks, a carb & headers ONLY has run 13.03.
