    Haha. Nothing. I had the car professionally ceramic coated by the buddy who owns the detail shop we use. Just turn a hose on it once in a blue moon. He did the top too. Didn’t do the glass is all

    I suffer from 2 things. COPD from smoking 45 years( I get winded EASY) I quit that… And back issues that only arose after the VA did my hip replacement. Lots of scar tissue, to clean it out they cut nerves, as hip and back were fused together. Much of the nerve stuff didn’t regenerate like they...

    Tell ya bud. It’s VERY hard. I don’t get around well anymore. So losing this weight has been 90% cutting back on what I eat, the other 10% getting on my schwinn airdyne at night and in the morning. Recently it’s gotten harder and harder to get more off than it was initially. Next step is to...

    New carb finally arrived, with pic

    Agree, issue is they didn’t put a power valve in the front, so with 86 square jetting I suspect it will be pig rich cruising.and foul plugs, at a minimum. I am gonna drive over to lane automotive in the morning and grab a 4/5 power valve for the front, and probably put 79’s in it, leave the 86’s...

    New carb finally arrived, with pic

    If you are looking at the blp chart( I just did on their site) it says 86 blp jets are the same as This is the conversion chart I am looking at( unless it’s wrong) Says a blp 85 is a holley79, a blp 87 is a Holley 81, so a blp 86 would be a Holley 80. Those are WAY smaller jets than any 850 or...

    New carb finally arrived, with pic

    Learn something new every day. Called ATM about how this thing was jetted. Turns out there are THREE different jets. BLP, Holley, and ATM The guy when I told him this thing had 101 jets per the sheet, said that would translate to what an 86 Holley is. He sent me a conversion sheet for the jets...

    Yea, my high speed bleeds are 33’s which is a bit leaner than 31’s would be I believe.

    New carb finally arrived, with pic

    Your probably running Holley 84/86’s My buddy with the conversion table said an 86 Holley is a 96 blp Edit, found on my invoice sheet it says 89/101. So they indeed are blp jets.

    New carb finally arrived, with pic

    Think you are correct, they are likely blp jets. Just talking to a buddy who bought a new carb from Thumper, came with blp’s He has a conversion table, these 101’s equate to 89 Holley jets. Still seems big. Have to play around and see. Unlike with thumper, who shipped with 4 size small and...

    Here is the spec sheet, I gave them the exact specs of exactly what I have and what I have had on the car previously carb wise. I am far from a carb guru, but if I am reading this right, the jets seem HUGE to me???

    Any benefit to 10” wheel?

    Years back I had a 9 sec car ( duster) that was on super stock springs. It wasn’t minitubbed or anything. I ran that same size tire( basically 28 by 10) on an 8 inch wheel. Raced a 10.0 points series at a track up North of me, which at the time was a touch sketchy and bumpy. Car moved around a...

    PTC converters switches hands

    I feel stupid when I had my trans out last year not sending the converter in and getting it adjusted. It flashes about 4900 ish. It’s nice and tight, which I like, but I am sure the combo would love the flash at about 5400 or so. This is likely my last year of racing, so it leaves something I...
