I didn't say street race - was just a hypo. Still - I'll meet you at the track when you're ready It's a win win for me though because if I lose, then it's just a 4-banger and everyone knew I would lose. If YOU lose, the ribbing will never end! Normal street radials.

Whats up with your heads anyway?

I had em sitting in the storage unit on another engine. My hood was leaned up against the wall, and the asshats in the unit next to mine banged the wall with something and knocked the hood over which hit the drivers side head. I didn't know it hit, and just put the heads on the Cobra. I have a few bent valves now because of it.

And I'm too poor to afford the gaskets to do the job, so I couldn't possibly afford street radials or anything special. LOL

That's what I meant - NORMAL, as in stock radial tires

Its rated at 263 but if my other car was new, it would be rated at almost 700 - so 263 doesn't really excite me, but it is fun as a DD

Some NAWWWSSS! stickers will ad like 200 hp. Oh yeah, and a wing for another 20 hp. Don't forget the cold air intake for 30 hp, and the spark plug change for another 15 hp. We'll have you upwards of 400 hp by days end!
