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

But that sure looks like fun! And you can't put a price on a good time! None of these combos are "killers" but can they be built for a reasonable price and will they go under the indexes? OBTW, 12.70s in Q is nothing to sneeze at!

I have a 66 Impala that will not cooperate with my budget, 283 2 barrel @ 170 is beginning yo look real good!!!!! Only seen one guy run one and it was not real stellar. Is this a bad combo for U/SA Billy or Mark? I'm talking CHEAP!!!!

2V 283 in U will run the index but really small carb will hurt. Don't get carried away with cam.

I tried my 2 bbl combo on my 66 nova a couple months ago and it did not like it at all ..
It however did do the index in Q for the 1/8 mile .Did not get to test the 1/4.
Plus all i did was intake and carb (only change from my 4 bbl combo). I am sure a gear and converter change would have helped..
