Default Re: Some "Dime Rockets" for the 4TH!

Billy my long lost good friend.
Just a few hick ups in your proposed 82 Mustang dime rocket combo.

1) Only available as a stick from the factory. If NHRA accepts it as a automatic God bless.
2) Aerostars came with 8.8 rear ends. Look for 4x4 Ranger with 4 cylinder for 4.10 or even 4.30 gears with a posi 7.5.

It's funny how NHRA whacked the almost all the 302's when new (our 86 especially with a 15 bump before it ever turned a tire) yet they let that misrable BS Caddy get away with a rediculous 170 HP rating n S/SS and continues to do so. (No offense to my friend Bob Shaw)
This is why I feel zero remorse for anyone who has to race with a CJ or DP.

By the way Billy, I have the ultimate FoMoCo "dime rocket" stocker combo.
