As long as we're on drag cars... Here's some pics I have floating around. The cars are not mine. They're from friends I had years ago.

not uncommon to drop a chevy in a Jag...my neighbor had one...although it was done out of neccesity rather than desire.
jag eventyally fell apart.

What you don't see in the photo of the Jag is the full cage, narrowed 9" Ford, and wall-to-wall slicks. That's an 871 blower sticking out the hood. Under it is a 504 Chevy big-block.
The '64 'Vette uses the "low buck" approach. It's equipped with a 454 running a tunnel ram. Power is routed through a two-speed powerglide. Amazingly, It’s running the OEM four-wheel drum brakes. ('64 was the last year for drums.) Here's my brand new '94 T/A at the track. 275 hp LT1 running through a ZF six-speed. It was quick for a new car, yet a bit of a slug in comparison to my friend's cars. Then again, I had A/C, and little to maintain between rounds. ![]()

Those guys definitely had a bad balls-to-brains ratio. Pretty cool Bugatti, but not even a pair of goggles!

The brits never made a refrigerator... They couldn't figure out a way to make it leak oil.
