Well, if ya had to build it today, it's probably far less than 1/2 of what it would cost new.

It'd be tough to build the motor for less than 25k with new components, and more than likely closer to the 32k that Oddy's gets.

EXPENSIVE

And thats pretty much my point. For what it is, I'm pretty much giving it away.

It's already ran 5.30 flat @ 133 in the 1/8th on 11 yr old ET Streets, with it severely detuned. That's right about an 8.25 in the quarter at around 168.

There's no doubts in my mind that with a new set of slicks, it'll be in the 4s in the 8th, and deep in the 7s in the quarter.

Where else are ya gonna find a turn key truck with trailer for 36k that runs that fast?
