We got the AMX out for the first time this season. New tires new battery new carb Installed a vacuum pump. New all time best 5.80 at a 116.5 miles per hour. I will never as long as I live by another carb other than an APD that thing was dead on right out of the box. I have always been a Pro...
Keith Long at 727 Specialist fixed me up a 904 with a billet straight cut gear with a 2.10 first gear. It calmed the car down and it still 60's well. I love my 904. It's also 1st or 2nd gear leave capability on the trans brake.
Back in the early 80's I had a bone stock 1971 340 Demon with 100k miles on it. it's run 8.95 in the 1/8th mile with h-78-14 tires. Around here I could beat any stock muscle car except for this one guy that had a 1970 Torino Gt with a 429 SCJ . He'd pass me at about 1200 feet every time we...
I use the Lucas 10w-30 in the race cars. If you believe that Zinc is good for a race engine. Lucas racing oil has the highest concentration that you can buy. It's over 3000 ppm. I use 5w-40 Rotella full syn in my Ram diesel.
I had to go buy some new under ware this weekend. The first four stores I shopped in only had under ware from China. The fifth store had some under ware made in Honduras . So I bought that.
I plan on bracket racing it as long as my health is good. Then I'll give it to my son. I think he's going to use my W7 stuff and build a turbo W7 engine. But I don't know if this chassis is going to be good enough for that.
It was originally built in Arkansas for a guy. The person I purchased it from has owned it since 2003. His son decided to stop racing so the father sold me the car. I think it'll make a really good bracket truck. It's a mild steel chassis so it don't think that it can cert for faster than 7.50 ...
Patents are not forever. Generic drugs are copies of name brand drugs. I have no problem with somebody coming up with a revised and improved W5 head. The guy's transbrake that Speedmaster copied. Was it patented? If so they broke the law and should suffer whatever is the appropriate punishment...
It had a BBM and a glide. I'll be putting my W5 engine and a TF904 trans. With the current combo it ran 5.60's in the 1/8th. If I can get 750hp out of my engine it should run about 5.75

Kent Ritter had a really good deal on some W7'S so I got them for a future project. My son is wanting to build a Turbo Charged W7 engine. For the small block class down here.
My friend Laverne Ferrouillat won the SBN02 class in his 71' Duster. But He was running N/A. 420" W9 engine. The Chevy and the Ford guys are upset. This is the second time that he's beat them running N/A. Samantha Ferrouillat
I really wanted a A body car 4 link car but every one that I could find was a pro stock style car or a really nasty piece together car my budget was about 20K. Later on down the road I think my son is going to build a naturally aspirated small block to run in a naturally aspirated small block...
On my new build I am thinking about using a grid system for the Ignition and using a coil near Spark plug system. What are you guys using in the rear of your block for a camshaft position sensor. Innovators West makes a harmonic balancer with magnets in it can I use this to trigger the crank...
Going to put my R3-W5 engine in it when I finish it. Tube chassis all fiberglass body. It's supposed to weigh 2650 with a Indy iron block, big block. I hope it's about 2550 with my small block and a 904 transmission
