My 250

Well, I was wondering, are 250's decent engines to pull power from? Or should I just go with a 350 or the 400 that we own(needs to be rebuilt)? If the 250's can pull decent power, as in quick times off the line and the ability to go a decent speed, then what performance parts would you recommend for it? Sorry about these dumb questions, I'm relatively new to automotives.

Go here http://www.inliners.org/ Then click on Bulletin board on the left side. It's a great forum for any inline questions. I'm keeping my 250.

Re: My 250

Thanks for the links guys, I've looked at both of em' and am registering on inliners.org. Is that performance kit from t6racing any good?

Re: My 250

Well theres no doubt a SBC will be quicker and more powerful. But, souped sixes are alot cooler and have cooler sound to them.
