i didnt read this whole thread but i didnt have to either...for $5500 you can get a block, head, and a turbocharger capable of putting you in the 150-160mph range 1/4 mile wise. you cannot build a car that goes that fast for $5500. i have close to $10,000 worth of parts (no car just parts) and im only shooting for 125-130mph traps. this is most likely the gayest thread of the year.
