    Hangover Nationals

    I remember Hangover Nationals from the LACR days, many years ago. I thought the idea died when LACR did. I wish Tucson wasn't so far away.

    In search of the owner of this car!

    I don't.know about the state that dart is in, but in california, NO, you can't search for an owner by the plate number, it's illegal. And besides, o.p.is in Sweden, gonna be hard to get dmv help here.

    Disappointing test drives/rides……..

    There are a bunch of blindingly fast small block ford's out there, now. Most with heavy doses of power adder. And having great aftermarket heads available certainly helps. But hot rodding a 289 or 302 in the 70s, or early eighties, with those pretty pathetic heads that were available, sometimes...

    Disappointing test drives/rides……..

    I had a 65 Galaxie, with a 352. Rode nice, the power brakes were awful, way too much assist, .....and it wouldn't pull a fat girl off a tricycle.

    Disappointing test drives/rides……..

    Not me personally, but a friend of mine, many many years ago. He had put a bunch of work and money into a 65 mustang with a 289. Headers, intake, carb, gears, solid cam swap. He ran across a smoking deal on a 63 corvette roadster, with the standard 300 horse 327/4sp combo. He was thoroughly...

    1/2'' wheel studs enough?

    That is some badass housing! I'm using a narrowed stock housing without any bracing, with 33 spline strange axles, with 1/2" screw-in studs. But I'm lighter than you (only a couple hundred) and WAY less motor. (The small bearing Ford axle ends limit the spline count to 33. The bigger stock...

    Stop in for a cup of coffee

    Agree. Why not? As long as I'm not forced to watch, lol . I only watch college football to root against the teams I hate. Nobody I really adore.... except anybody beating usc, bama, osu.

    Stop in for a cup of coffee

    What a wonderful college football season! F#@king usc loses their bowl game. Indiana beats THE F#@king ohio state,, wrecking unbeaten season ( YAY!) Miami beats THE f#@king ohio state in the playoffs (good bye!) If Indiana smokes alabama tonight, God can take me, I'll be happy. Edit: 38-3...

    Time for new 15” tires for a 460 hp Dart.

    I've seen drag radials on the front of fast 4wd suv's and trucks many times, at the drag strip. Whether or not they are daily driven that way, I don't know.

    Time for new 15” tires for a 460 hp Dart.

    Nitto drag radials on the rear, with enough air in them to handle. Nitto G2's on the front. My suggestion, anyway. If you feel the need to go fast in a straight line, drop pressure from 32-35 to 18-20. ET drag radial Pro's on my hotrod. 315/65. Won't fit your dart without serious work.

    318 std piston quench with aluminum heads?

    Drive down the road at a speed that gives a very noticeable vibration. Note rpm. Then, when stopped, rev and hold that rpm in neutral. Vibration? It's in the engine/trans. Smooth? It's something that moves when moving at speed. ( driveshaft, u-joints, pinion angle, tires/wheels) And with...

    318 std piston quench with aluminum heads?

    Yep, free. And LOTS of useful stuff on his site. Bookmarked on my phone and tablet. I've used his cr calculator lots of times. Only thing confusing is his dome volume/dish volume is backwards from the way I would think of them, so care, and following instructions is required.
