bada450r Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Do you have a price range to start with? DMX a spread bore would cost about 8 to 10k to built properly not to mention the chassy set up......just look oround for a set up that would best suit your style of riding. :cool: Quote

You can really just get to much power for a stock frame if not set up perfectly.. Jmo.. Quote
trademark Posted May 9, 2009 Author Report Posted May 9, 2009 all sounds good i was thinking a 14 mil super cub,,but i want to stay with my partly stock frame at the moment... and you all are say'n to stay are 10mil because of a stock frame.... what you suppose could be done for around $5k just in motor Quote
lowbuckracing Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 Get the right builder and a 421 ported,timmed,carbed and set up to get it on will hang as long as you have the chassis to put it down,with a cut trans and all the goodies.If your gonna race track with a full rigid..Then you will spend evil amounts to hang with the big boys. If you are looking for a 14mm then you missed the deal of the day yesterday from Docjwatson here on the hq...Just wait for someone to pop a lil nut in a chick and another deal will be on the way..Does this mean we have to make a welfare build for doc now too?Dam!!!Jk doc..good luck on the newby..

Hilarious Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 last i heard was anything smaller than a 10mill and you wont be considered a serious drag racer. Quote

bada450r Posted May 10, 2009 Report Posted May 10, 2009 last i heard was anything smaller than a 10mill and you wont be considered a serious drag racer. i would not understand why a small motor would not be consider a serious for drag racing motor....it gets serious when you make serious..........weather it be a 350 to a triple dmx......you just race according to class....imo Quote
