      Katz I think it is time for you to start thinking about an all alum. sbc for that Buick. That alone should take, what, 400 lbs off of that nailhead.

      Nailhead: 685 lbs carb-to-pan (not sure if it's correct, I read it somewhere)

      Bill Mitchell's all alum 427 SBC: 435 lbs carb-to-pan

      Not quite 400 lbs, but it still is a big deal.

      Unfortunatly, the swap won't happen anytime soon. I need to start saving some money, especially with potential relocation and whatnot....
      Speaking of which, my potential new employer should be starting his business soon.

      I think I'll just buy a set of good tires that would fit on my current rims (255/45R18s, probably GY GS-D3), build rear sta bar and call it good for this season.
      The first step of becoming a better driver is to attend a track event, time yourself, and realize the fact you really suck.

      Signed,
      A driver who laps Big Willow at 1:42.6 in a 134hp BMW - and I am still considered mediocre.
