But you had your El Camino to start with before you sourced and converted it to a race car-- Im done here, got a F/C build that needs my attention

cad500justin:
Run zoomies. You can find them regularly. It's not how fast you go, it's how you go fast. That's why you're building a fed and not a red. You can always put a blower on it later....
I imagine most of the dragster zoomies you find will be pretty close to optimal length, unless you're looking for that last .01
You could always buy a long set, and once the car is sorted out, start hacking an inch at a time until she slows down. I halfway wonder if the added weight of longtube collector headers would offset the hp difference of shorty zoomies?

An FED with collector headers is like a girl at the beach with long pants--Come on!! Zoomies are the only way to go
either build a nostalgia car or race a Camaro
