So I picked up my first LTD this weekend. Almost had an 80 Fairmont wagon but the guy had issues with getting the title from the original owner. So I didnt want the hassle and stumbled upon this LTD.

Not 100% sure yet. But I know want it to be steetable something to cruise in & go to the track sometimes. Thinking either boosted mod motor(teksid block) or boosted 351w. I'm doing reserach now to see what will be cost be between the both of them. I want at least 500-600rwhp.
i know it will be a slowwwwwwww build. lol I need a rear right pass window and body work on the rears. Going to PAP this month sometime since they do have an 85 in there i might be able to grab some parts off of.
The 351 will be cheaper. And if you want to build for dragstrip performance, I'd recommend basing your build off of the ET/MPH you want to run, estimating your race weight and getting a power target from there. You may be surprised what you'll need...possibly less than expected.
