Separate names with a comma.
Good idea, I had the timing off (way retarded) on mine at one pass and had flames out of the headers like a nitro car, but in reality it could not...
I agree with turning the hi- speed around (I had a manual hi-speed at times). When I went from iron heads (basic) to solid cast aluminum...
Is this an iron or aluminum block and/ or head? Cragar intake? The combo sounds close to what I ran 28 years ago, but I ran everything in the...
Jerry Darien (TAD) Brad Anderson (TAFC) 1981
Let me ask a dumb question. Is this 27-29 degree timing due to a more potent mag? Because 25-30 years ago 36-40 degrees (Vertex or Super Mag II)...
That sounds like a good bit of compression. If you increase your OD, I would take baby steps (2-3% at a time) and be prepared to add a little...
You made need to be careful with the piston deck height. I am not sure what the clearance specs are for today's alky engines. I think gas is...
SBC or BBC? Dragster or ? Blown Vette may be on to something w/ the fuel tank. My first guess would be the engine is too lean (usually if too...
Is this a "down" surge (engine laying down) or an "up" surge (engine running away from the clutch)? What type of gearing (rear end & trans) do...
I will guess your Rodeck (B241) would date back to 1979. I had B090 (new in early 1978).
Will those are intersting points. Also, I wonder if the Alky cars have "out grown" the Divisional Races. In the late 70s and into 1980, most...
Maybe this is a needed evolution. From the mid 60s to 1973, the contested Pro classes (w/ enough divisional points) raced for the title at the...
My very first race car was a BB/FC (1977), so we made a "training engine" (BBC) by replacing the 1/2 stroke crank w/ a 1/4 stroke. This dropped...
My concern would be; is HD in it for the long haul, or just to polish it up and sell the rights (for a nice profit). On the positive side, if new...
I remember hearing in the late 70s about adding a very small amount to cut down on detonation. However, methanol attracts moisture easily enough....
Fremont 1981 Darrell Gwynn TAD 6.41-214.28 Brad Anderson TAFC 6.44-217.39
That question has been asked more than once over the last 25+ years, and it is a very short list of people over that same time period that could...
2 speed should work and thats one less gear to shift. I know in 1981 Bill Mullins had the quickest small block TAD and he ran a Lenco 2 speed (I...
Not being familiar with Sand Drags, I don't know how much the engine is loaded vs. 17" wide slicks grabbing on concrete. We ran a manual leanout...
I have heard of Devcon being used in heads (but unsure of tread hold as part of the use).
