Another thing I miss is we used to talk about manifolds and different things that we designed and made in our own shop which except for turbo stuff most of that has gone away. This type of thing might be of greater interest to the young guys who have more time than money, that is how a lot of us started out years ago, we couldn't go out and buy it (no money to spare or nobody sold it) so we had to build it. I wonder if the young guys had just a few ideas to get them started what they could come up with that we never thought of or considered.
Did you ever wonder what a good 261 with fuel injection and a turbo adapted to a new six speed auto out of a late model silverado would perform in a small import body that had a tube chassis and weighed in under 2000 lb. Just food for thought. I know how a big block ford six runs in a 1700 pound roadster with no blower, some guys would say awesome.


Been there, Done that, Hope to live long enough to do it again.
