Title: Turbo Toy Update---Pics
Post by: turbo toy on May 21, 2006, 07:41:18 PM
Here are a few pics of the Pinto since I got it back up and running.I put on the MT ET Streets,new carpet and dash pad,then added the gauges and hand built aluminum hood scoop.I ported the head and put in big valves,double springs,RR cam,40bob upper and lower intakes and AFPR.RUNS REAL GOOD!

Curtis - you have really got that daily driver flying now. Running a 7.62 @ 94.1 with a 1.57 60' is a very fast 1/8 mile pass. If you guys see this car on the street don't mess with it. A car that is capable of running 11.80's in the quarter is a very quick street car! Heck, that's a very quick race car! Keep plugging away Curtis, you are gonna run faster yet. Not too shabby for a little 4 cyl.
