Default I am in lust!

Saw the new 572 crate engine last night, it just kept screaming my name, buy me put me in your vert., I am bigger and badder than your new 383 stroker. :yesnod: Now how do explain this one to my wife, she thought I was nuts last year for building the stroker.

Well a bucket of cold water and that the engine won't fit under hood (I think) becuase it a tall deck should cool you off. :D

You are just going to have to settle for a little 502 ;)

If I do this build, I may do a 69myway clone only in red, it just too much fun to think about. I got bored with my vert this past winter and have been having a giggle drawing up comcept plans. I will likely have the vette out for BG this year but that will be about it. If I keep the 383 in it will do some work to that next week to get it well over 500 hp just for kicks and giggles. Damn my wife hates it when I get bored. :lolg:

Hrm, I was going to say something clever, but then I started to worry my wife may decide (about a 1/1000th of a percent chance) to read this board... So I'll save it for next time :D
