57 Pontiac "Zero Fox"
- Thread starter tRustyK5
- Start date
I believe the theme to be “Zero Fox”
I bet he’s been banking OT at work so a Steve Morris 540 inch big block with twin 94mm turbskies may be on the way.
Right? That should push an all steel Indian deep in the 7’s after all the prep to allow the chassis to handle it.

I'd have to bank about 20 years of OT to make that happen.
This one seems to offer the most bang for the buck to me.

If there is a build this might mimic a little it'd be Frieburger's '56 Chevy with the "Covid 350". approx 500 hp, three pedals, roughly 3000 lbs. With no fine tuning he ran an 11.30 @ 119. If I can get Zero Fox in the 11.50 club I'd be happy as Larry.
If you have the MTOD subscription:
crate stroker?

Not like you got a hockey team to follow in the cup right now.
Too soon?
Not too soon, and it's all good.
Glad you are keeping it.

Me too. I've had the damn thing 7 years now, and if you read through this thread you can see plans and everything else have changed ten times. I jumped on it when it came up for sale, but for quite some time I had to put money elsewhere. I came close to selling it a few times, but just couldn't do it.
My wife wants me to sell one car and just have one to work on, etc. Don't tell her but I'm going to keep both the Fury and the Zero Fox. I will get rid of one car, but it will be the junk 66 Chrysler 300 4 door parts car out back. then I sorta keep my promise...right?

I’d get rid of the Fury before this thing, but that’s just because I don’t care for MOPAR’s.

I got to a point where I was ready to sell it and my 16 years old daughter was upset.
I guess she figured it would be her graduation gift.
I guess I can't sell it now.
I'm aware. Comes down to using the correct clutch disc...
That was a fun night for sure, and the Fury is the first car I've bought while completely shittered. Some guys wake up with ugly girls, I wake up with ugly cars...
