Re: Dime Rocket- DNQ
So is it time to open the "Dime Rocket" deal to ANY combo? I'm OK with that. I'm OK with anything that gets people out to the races!
We could have a 3.4 Monte Carlo vs. Turbo Sunbird C/FS Matchrace! Loser buys the hotdogs. I'm not quite sure that Tibors prices fall into the "Dime Rocket" range though. Maybe this thing is a "ringer"?

We have a family connection at Kadar Performance, so I don't know the pricing, but actually these heads needed to be straightened out anyway. Someone did a "valve job" on them last year,and carved them up pretty bad..Had to throw the valves away. These heads are literally laying on the ground at the U pull it yards. A little 3 angle , mill for cc's, and pop some new Comp beehive springs on them, and I don't believe they'd be too bad.

Re: Dime Rocket- DNQ
I may be the only other person interested, but I have a ton of questions. Mark knows why.
What wheel /tire combo up front? I see the spare wheels with skinnies on the rear. I also see the single belt. Did you replace the steering rack or just bypass the pump? What did you use for headers? Over the counter? (I somehow doubt it) Or custom? Not asking for secrets just an idea, as I have had a number of ideas to improve on what's available for this type of car. Rick Thomason GTOMayhem |
