Man Up. We made the car to go like hell on Friday. Raced on Saturday. Had a party on the boat Sunday. Worked on the car the rest of the week. Do it all again. Great times.

Thanks for clearing that up. I spent all night wondering if you meant Camry or Camaro.

Urblock seems like a pretty straight shooter, but Joe made a good point. So I did some light research.
1...The 351 Windsor weighs approximately twice that of a stock Pinto 4 cylinder
2... A stock 351 Windsor has more than twice the torque of the Pinto engine.
In order to keep that car together, some serious front suspension mods would have to be done to hold the increased weight of the 351. Also, the Pinto used subframes, so some serious chassis mods would have to be done to handle the increased torque. The only thing connecting the front and rear subframes together on a stock Pinto is sheet metal. I have no idea what mods, if any, were performed on Urblocks car in regards to chassis or suspension.

It was the early 80s so subframe connectors and a welder. Only needs to go straight in a drag race so it didn't matter how well it turned. Hell my wife took it on a beer run one night when the garage fridge ran out. Me and the guys had fun with that. Good times!

sway bars bruh. He said he had a welder. If he can weld 16 pipes into a header, he can stabilize a frame.
Good research though.
I have a Chevy small block in a go kart. Any tips?
