1-. i need to modify my chassis because originally are made to ressist
only 365lbs. of torque an i want to put a big block with more than 565 lbs. of torque . i now that it´s a problem, now i´m study to purchse if it sells a tubular chassis , but if that chassis are very expensive , modiffy my own chassis in madrid are a big friend of mine who has modifiy his own chassis on his 81 gold vette. he has the original plains of the vette and modify then to do more stronger and the car turns on any situation very good.
2-. some one else named goal . it´s very clear to me i want a 70´s old school race car but with the tecnologies of the s.xx1
my idea is do somethin like the white´s greenwood vette .i know that men runnnin on 70`s and have a vert modify to run like i want to do know. when i see many of yours vettes in someone esle of your drags-racings i need to do the same, i know that do a car of 10 seconds it´s very difficult but i´m goin to try do a good race car.
3-.thanks a lot for your help i was very pleasured to find my way, and i want to wih you a merry christmas and on next year all your wishes will be done .thanks again for help me ..
I love Madrid. I spent many months working there and met many very nice people.
Many Corvettes came with big blocks. New engines have more power, but you can still put that 502 in your Corvette and the chassis will be OK. You will probably first need a better clutch and maybe transmission.
Good luck with your project!

She enjoys pictures of attractive women just as much as I do. Once at dinner at a sushi place we had a fantastic looking blonde waitress named Jenn. Sarah was so taken aback by this girls looks she asked me if we could...'take her home.' Obviously, fearing a 'TEST' I said no, and just laughed with her about it.
