Default Re: Question about Aspens and Volares

My Volare was a solid 70-80 under car in G and won a few heads up runs but a 289 rating is fairly stiff and just couldn't fall in love with it like I've always felt about my A-bodies. But agree with Dyno about the 318 combo, just look at what George Widuch and his son ran at Indy this year and one of Steiger's old cars (with Bo Fowler at the wheel) ran good as well. I've admired Wofford's Super Stock Volare many times but ultimately it just isn't as popular a body style for many. Don't know what the CD is on them but suspect a brick has a similar number. If you have a nice one though and can build a decent 318 it can serve the purpose.
