Massachusetts here!
Yes...yes...I'm a Masshole but I'm a good guy. Have always loved fast powerful vehicles and have had my share of them. 40 years young and act like I'm 12..its great!
Just saying hello and hoping maybe to make a few new friends who are local so we can maybe hit NE Dragway or go out for a cruise night when my builds done.
Say hi!

As of now no ride but once the engine/tranny is done more than likely a s-10. Built two before both for offroading with 350's in both. This one will be my first street/minor strip for testing. Going to be a 400 smallblock. More than likely a 700r4 worked up some so I have that highway cruising gear.
Bought a 4bolt with a cracked block but everything else is good. Unfortunately didnt know it was cracked until I dug into the years of oil that kept it warm, lol. Using that guys engine cart Friday to go pick up a 2bolt with a decent amount of work into it for $350, Nice clean straight motor, minor bottom end knock, no biggie going through it anyway. Hoping when I bring his enginestand back he's a good dude and tosses me a few bucks back. I think he will, older gentelen, builds show cars and lives right up the road, good dude. Between the two alot of parts I can sell off and buy what I need/want.
Gonna do the 2bolt up the right way. Do the bottom end and make it stronger. You do the bottom-end right on a 2bolt main that thing is a absolute monster, hands down. Not totally sure yet what I want to do with the topend. Playing with a few ideas but mostly ideas that won't be to expensive to upgrade from. Eventually I would like to supercharge it or toss some big bottles on it.
The first pull I'd be happy with 400-425ish hp to the ground, all motor.
