    Hey!

    Last year was our first on alky, in fact first in our little country. Setup was as basic as it gets: 540 Big M, 8-71, Bird, hat nozzles only, E110 pump. 23 psi. Tranny PG. Camaro door car, #2700

    Just read the plugs and changed main pill as needed. Made 25 passes, bearings just like new, (checked them after every race).

    So when (hp, rpm, boost etc) do you really have to pull the oil pan after every pass and check/replace bearings? Or what is your maintenance like?

    Thank you,

    Partel

    Watch your oil filter and spark plugs.

    You can make high HP and not hurt parts or make low HP and hurt parts.

    We make more power now than we ever have, even though we run 8's now and 14's at one time, and our brgs and cranks last longer.

    The tune up has a lot to do with it. Watch your plugs, minimize your detonation as it will ruin anything.:)
