It's about $150 a month to pay off $2500. I would, just don't miss the payoff before the 18 months or you will eat all 18 months of interest in one big gulp.

Still up int he air about this but for fun lets talk what I would need.

I like the trick flow top end kit with the 11r heads.

Still would need a carb and intake.

As the saying goes "don't finance your toys"

In this case, it's not my money or toys.

So. "Do it ".

I know it's impractical and pointless from a performance standpoint, but I'm a huge fan of multiple carbs. Hissing Cobra's (not sure if he's on this site or if he even still owns this car) '79 has the most beautiful example.

I thought they had a top end kit with an intake in the package?

I'm no expert on 85year foxes but I really liked my AFR 165's\CompCam\Holley combo made 305/310 to the tires.

Does trickflow make a dual plane carb intake? Research I must! What size 11r's are you thinking?

The 11r's alone will eat up that money but I definitely liked my 11r's. No quality issue at all. Wish I had finished the project just so people would have had a real life example.
