My advice would be to find a safe place to do some first second hits and get used to how the Tamer reacts as the clutch heats up Etc

I typically avoid mufflers with packing for this reason. Gibson is my go-to muffler.

I have been waiting for a new blow proof bell that was ordered on April 9th. I figured it would be sometime in August however it's not here in the racing season is over. During times when I take an extended absence from running my car I often wonder if it will ever see the road again LOL...

I am using the 66-69 Hemi 6 qt (5 in the pan) reproduction pan and pick up with a summit 1-pc windage tray gasket assy. 6700RPM max, no issues. I also switched over to the 73-up steering components. Between that and the QA1 k member it is blissful to work on compared to stock k and steering...

That is hilarious, thank you sir : D

I have a 4847SA

Did you guys scrap the 340 idea and go with a stock stroke 440 yet? Or can we change pistons and spray it?

Rock auto sells mispackaged parts i.e. the p/n is correct yet the wrong part is in the box. I sent a note with my return and no reply. You should share that email address. Today I had the pleasure of helping the guy that runs the local saw mill repair his Case 580 backhoe. The NAPA ignition...

I was running the powergrip hd which is the same sintered bronze puck arrangement on both sides of the clutch disc. It likes some rpm at low speeds and to get moving. I also ran the same disc you are running at about 600iish hp in my 3600lb 66 Charger with good results. You will likely wear...

Did you make sure the float floats? It doesnt take much fuel in a float to make it act stupid. It seems unlikely that the nitrophyl float has taken on fuel.

You cannot run nitrous with hypereutecticish pistons. That's why hardly anyone showed up : D

I have had good luck with a Clutch Tamer. As stated above the way it is set up will depend on the clutch. If you have a ton of pp PSI and a sintered bronze material you can get away with a very soft engagement. I set my Tamer to start working on the last 1" of pedal travel. I leave about...

I would call Rich at fast man efi or FHO.

You will most certainly need to provide access and possibly enough area to turn at minimum, a type 3 engine around. The requirements are similar here in Oregon for new construction. To me these requirements make sense however I alaways marvel at how many rural folks I know with driveways that...

Electrical parts have been a nightmare. Starters, relays, toggle switches and the list goes on. After being burned way too many times I skip Rock Auto and go local or Summit. Summit used to swap out defective parts. Last order they had me return the damaged parts (poor packing job) and...

A few more pictures

Here are some pictures

1967 A100 Truck -360 LA with a B&M 177 supercharger, Edelbrock carb, headers etc. -727 TF with aftermarket converter anf shift kit -3" exhaust with Magnaflow mufflers -15" Torque Thrust D wheels with good cooper Cobra tires. - Nice black interior needs carpet (not present) and speedo cable assy...

...my shoes weight 157g. My house keys weigh 42 grams (4 keys). It will be interesting to see how the weight delta between TI and steel pans out. *if* I was going to replace something external to the engine in TI it would be the exhaust system, rear end axle tubes, and axles. Definitely...

Did you try the "lost muscle cars" facebook group?

Add shooter nozzle volume and see if it gets better. In some applications I opened them up to the size of the tube originally feeding the shooter nozzle to cure a bog when you mash it. You need yo make sure there is enough fuel when the air door decides to open.

My old 451" engine had a Performer and eventually a modified holley SD for induction. It had factory a-body exhaust manifolds, ported big valve 906's and a healthy hydraulic cam (.560ish w/1.6 ductile rockers). With my dyno headers and a Performer RPM intake the engine made 500hp/500tq. With...

What do you use something like that for? Usually if i can't get the 4.5 grinder in the space there isn't room to weld it either.

Draw a triangle with a 90 degree corner and get back to me on which side is the longest : D Sorry you are having trouble. Should have went with a G Force 101a : /

I don't see the need to go any farther than QA1 UCA's. I have them in my dart (and 3 b body cars) with no complaints. In a drag car you are typically focused on the following: -Suspension travel -Bump steer -Equal side to side caster sweep -a solid upper bump stop (used as a travel limiter in...

In my experience the cover just makes the corrosion worse by trapping moisture. That said I'm admittedly reactionary when it comes to winch preventative maintenance. I tend to forget about the winch on my truck until it is required to proceed. Bad habit!

I have Warn 9500lb winches on my trailers. One is a high speed model for urgent recoveries. I have seen the badlands brand winch have issues with planetary assembly when overloaded (i.e. usong it for more than it's rating). My last few trucks have SuperWinch brand winches and they have been...

My 68 is like that. The d/s can only be installed with the rear suspension at full extention.

I have QA1 uppers on several cars and have been happy with them.

Be advised that Quicktime bellshousings have issues. I would check the transmission register runout vs. crankshaft and make sure it is true to the block. The height of the clutch fork bracket is also incprrect. Lastly, keep and eye on the bell crank bracket. They are thin and tend to fold up...
