Re: best motor and car combination for the money
hear is a tip, Mark and Billy can lead you to some very good picks, Both are very good at it. Go back and look up the Dime Rocket thread, good place to start. Buy if you can, much cheaper.

Re: best motor and car combination for the money
If you really mean that it should be fun and having fun is your main goal then do the 194. Jim Watson from Tennessee or Kentucky runs real well with a 194. A 2V 283 will index and keep from having to cut up the car too. If you want to set the world on fire and make a name for yourself then get a big block Camaro or a late model injected car. Make it a red one.

Re: best motor and car combination for the money
How about faster cars? B,C,D,E......other than the Drag Paks and Mustangs. The LS1 Corvette/GTO is a steal at 340.
