    How to get a 67 coupe into the 10's?

    for a motor, a stroked 460 with some Blue Thunder heads would get you going right in the right direction. Easy to make 500+ hoorsepower without much strain, then add your nitrous. As for the tranny, the C4 is lighter than the C6, and can be made to be fairly reliable, but the C6 will work...

    Help!!! Oil pump shaft fell out.

    how did it fall out,, if it came out when you pulled the distributor,, just epoxy it onto the bottom of the distributor,, as you go to put it back in, it might not set down the last 1/4 inch or so, if that is the case, turn the engine over just a touch.. then it will drop the last bit..
