well the engine in it now is hopefully gonna b used for 1 season then the real work begins!! car will get a fuel injected 500+ci aluminum headed bbc with a single 100mm turbo hopefully making 1500hp+ funny car cage addition 9inch rear running 7:50's. if you look at the 10.5 outlaw mustang most of them dont run ford engines and ill tell you why. to build a big displacment bbf its costs$$$$ no one makes an aftermarket block like dart/world the machining costs involved in a big stroke and bore bbf is ridiculus. you will easily spend $5000 on ablock that only produces around 520ci when you can get a dart big m block that will produce 700ci for $3000 i love fords ive had a ton of mustangs but the exspense to go really fast is too much for me. if i was building a street car it would have like a 408 with a procharger or somethin in that nature. i respect any car/bike thats fast cuz i know what it takes to get there!

Are 3rd and 4th gen Camaros that bad of drag cars? I have always wondered why people put the Chevies into Fords. Now I am NOT knocking your build, but if I was a Chevy man I would build a Camaro in a 'heartbeat.'

But the fab work looks great and it sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun. Best of luck.

One day I plan on doing a '65 Elco with a Terminator drivetrain and a 9", just to average out all the Chevy powered Fords. That is going to be great.

bull shit a ton of them run ford engines. Build your chevy but dont try to talk BBF you obviously have no clue what your talking about. Ever heard of Mike Murrilo? lol Ford racing sells a aftermarket 460 block. A460 you can pick them up new for less than 2 grand and will go 600 cid.

BTW your car is no were near legal to run anything under 8.50. You can't have anything plated to the floor it all has to be to the frame. 7.50's sounds cool but you will have to start over. I am in the middle of building one right now so this is how I know. I read the rule book before I started building to give me a Idea. It is a nice looking car except for the abortion under the hood.
