    We FINALLY got the FED out with the New Blown Alky engine! The tire on it are "old" (Hoosier NTF's) and shook my BRAINS out! Is anyone willing to "share" what the "Hot Ticket" is for these cars? Its build for 7.0 PRO class 509BBC, 14-71, 3.90 gear, 1.56 low 2-spd Lenco/Bruno. Thanks in advance! Tim

    Go over to the Nostalgia Funny Car Board. You will probably find some 7.0 Pro advice there. Take a trip to Bakersfield for the CHRR and spy on them. What they do with seat of the pants tuning is amazing. I will guess the gearing might be off ??

    In my FED blown SBC 6.60-6.70's I run Goodyear 33x14.5 D6 D2070 mounted on 15x14 wheels. I have run these tires against a powerglide 3.70 gears and currently with a 3-spd B&J and 9" 3-disk pedal clutch
