I liked even the add in the beginning.

Sportsmanship, and hundreds of ways to loose. A few ways to win. All good!

What about Indexs races?

Why not buy a old block and then a crank kit and stroke it to a 383 or are you dead set on a 350? I can remember buying a kit from Northern Autoparts and I assembled a complete 355 for under $1000. The only thing to that was it had cast pistons but I think you could upgrade them, but the motor was ...

What headers would work for a 350 in an S10 what size and what brand for around 400HP? Size depends on the Engine. If you are going to make peak HP around 5800 - 1 5/8" w/ 3" collector If you are going to make peak HP around 6500 - 1 3/4" w/ 3 1/2" collector http://www.summitrac...

That's really up to you on what YOU want to mess with, but if you look at Pro Mod, Pro Stock, etc. almost everything is traditional OHV. Getting started like you're doing, affordability, easy to work on and find parts are a big benefit. I wouldn't spend too much time worrying about messing with a O...

Stock eliminator is a very tough class and not usually run at local type events. I agree that local level index racing is a great place to start once you get your feet wet with some test-n-tune. Alright so Stock Eliminator is IHRA only. Ill try some Index class, with 12 second and high 11 second in...

Where you from? I have a 350 block that has been prepped, except for line honing, with a rotating assembly (6"rods), good beginner solid isky cam/lifters, and maybe a few other odds and ends I could package up for you. PM me if you are interested. I'd say you'd have to be somewhat close for it...

I'd browse the classified here or on RacingJunk. You may be able to snag something there...maybe even be able to here it running. What headers are you planning on running. You will need 350 S-10 swap headers, they may be spendy. As far as the ET your looking to run - use the calculator I have linke...

Watch out for the nova folks on this site.

The CAMARO folks will help you out anytime

That sucks for me than, I've always liked the Novas more

Not to hijack but - I like the Orange Bruce

Only Motocross and BMX

To get your feet wet in heads up racing, I would look for some index classes, 1/8th or 1/4, they are a great place to start and you can have some fun without dropping a ton of money. The hot heads up classes right now in order of most expensive to least expensive(none are cheap!!) outlaw 10.5, outl...

Whats the best drag racing class to start in? I am mainly looking at the IHRA since my local strip is an 1/8th mile that mainly runs IHRA and bracket races. I want a more Heads Up Class, I was looking at Stock Eliminator but I don't know much about the class. There is also a 1/4 Mile strip about 2 1...

It can be done on a budget that's for sure. But sit down and make a plan even if you go over a budget, a plan can help to keep up with the cost of the project. Would should I include in the plan I am trying for around a low 12 second maybe into the high 11s car. Yes. Your plan needs to include what...

Those are hard questions to answer. First off how much money do you have to send on a motor? Do you want to buy a ready to run motor or are you wanting to build something? How much power do you intend to make with this motor? Lots of questions you need to ask yourself. With that said, I wouldn't do...
