Hi everyone! I am new here. Actually, I searched for a forum like this to hopefully get some answers to some questions that I have so I hope some of ou will help.

We are looking at a car with a 406 stroker. The car is suppose to have drag capability but also we are suppose to be able to drive it where we need to. My question is that it has a whole lot of stuff in it that I don't know what it is. Can someone please look at this list and tell me if this car is driveable on the street and if it is not, what mods would have to be made in order to do this.

What is it that you dont understand exactly? The cam is very big and might cause some idleing problems. The converter is a high stall for a vehicle that can go anywhere. From the sounds of the mods, I doubt I would want to try and drive it to FL. I'm sure its very loud too - which could or couldnt be a problem for you or your neighbors.

well the guy told me that I could drive it around town with no problems. Yes, it does have to be quieted down. But someone else told me that because if the convertor, it can't be driven at all other than for drag racing.

yeah, even with a built motor, something like a 2500-2800 stall would be better for regular street use.
