I spoke with John at Jomar at length about filters. I had a question and he took the time to educate me about filters. Next best choice to a Jomar filter per John is Motorcraft due to a higher bypass pressure.

I started driving in 1976. Drove a few Brockways in my early career. Pieces of **** for sure. They rode like crap. Had wood floors. Rattled to beat the band. Headlight's bounced around like a disco ball just to name a few.

The joke about the bulldog is why does it face forward? So one asshole can look at the other. Why don’t they tun it around? They don’t want two assholes running down the road at the same time.

Today Mack isn’t a Mack at all. Since Volvo bought Mack in 2000 they basically cloned the Volvo with Mack badges, engines and all.

Taking the clamps off lets the car anti squat and push the tire into the track. Clamps on the rear hinder the process. IMHO.

Note, the body raises and drives the tire into the track.

Spring will bind up and you will get wheel hop. Take the rear clamps off and leave them off.

Clamps on the front section of the rear springs only.

I bought the ebay kit ($9.99) for my H4 lights. 16ga wires do not get hot, or warm for that matter.

Have almost new QFT 600 Slayer carb for sale. Vacuum secondary and electric choke. Looked to pick up a little at the track vs Eddy 600. No difference but the QFT has better response on the street. Swapped out the QFT for a Eddy 650, annular boosters. Guess what. Drag times exactly the same...

Interesting. I want to add a third car and they quote $600 for book value which is around $11k. Only myself and my wife live here and she doesn’t drive anymore but she still has her license

Thanks Dmopar74. Ill check with Hagerty.

Not a bad price. How old are the kids? I put daughter on my policy but she pushing 50. Still my kid though

I have my 67 Valiant insured with American Collector. Under AC you need to be listed on the policy and need 10 yr experience. My grandson now 16 and has his license, has ridden in the car since forever but can’t drive it due to driver eligibility requirements. Only option is regular car...

Leave the clamps off of the rear section. You don’t want them there if you’re going to hit the drags anyways.
