A friend of mine has a 287 V8 . I have a 232 I6 .
We have an appointement on  September  06 , for a local meeting here in Canada .
The goal  : be first on the 1/4 .
The price for the winner is a cleanner at Petrocanada :P
( Well , just have the car washed  )
Anything is possible . Both cars are daily , and we don t have money .
Junk parts are allowed .
Just keep the block stock .

Rebel :  l es pas si mal mon anglais pour un gars de Toulouse  :P
No more car :)
Maybe a 1965 Ambassador Coupé someday .. If I can find a cheap one.

As we are quite fairplay , Rebel offered me a Eaton M62 blower and nice Rambler carpets . ( Carpets makes us run faster , remember Alladin ... ) .
This makes me forget till fall the 3 Roch B :P
So I have to find him a 4 barrels  intake for a 287 . Same as for a 327 .
Even in bad or even bad shape , I look for this .
Even a 287 , which could be modded  , I can deal with this .
Help me helping him , I m quite sure my 232 can beat his V8 :P
Hope this is quite correct for Sickthick  :P
( Sorry , just a joke :P )

What accent? I just don't get the words!
Save your money on the 4-bbl for the 287.  Rebuild a good 2-bbl and you should be good.  My best advice is to stay OUT of the racing groove.  That sticky stuff will just slow you down.  I doubt if you will have a problem with traction.
