I was thinking, and after I get a job and fix up my car, I wanna build a drag race car. I was thinking about what to use, and I think I've decided. I'm going to buy a SSEi, soup up the motor, change it to RWD (cause you can get more power and I like wheelies), strip it down to bare naked, and install the basic drag stuff. What do y'all think? Just an idea.

too expensive :?

You do realize there is more drivetrain to a RWD that FWD right?

I'm all for a cool project though. Go for it.

I know it'll be expensive, and I know it'll be a lot of work, but I'll have fun and I'll learn some new stuff.

Two words:

Fiero. L67.

with cam, TOGs, cat delete, 3" exhuast, turbo, intercooler, 2.8"

a lot cheaper and faster....and RWD

But wouldn't it be a lot cooler to see an old gramma car pull up at a drag strip racing Camaros and stuff?

In the rear of a Bonneville with an L67 eh..
7.25 CORP 3.73 ratio IRS
5 Spd Getrag.....or possibly small new venture transmission..NV1500?
I sell all these goodies at work, would make for ONE hell of a custom project...

uhh....there are cars on here that do that now

hmmmm. a rear drive bonne would be cool.......but seems like a waste of money. you want a grandma car to hot rod just buy a caprice, supercharge the lt1 and leave the hub caps on it.
