    Here's the poop: My car is a '65 Dart Installing a set of Indy 360-1 heads (245 series), in lieu of my W's, with matching heddman man hustlers. I'm looking for a set of 2"X3.5" hedders that will fit these things. Or do I modify the Hustlers somehow. The middle exhust appears to overlap the...

    Back again...

    So busy these days, but we're still here. The Dart is nolonger on the street, since we went to a full cage, and it just wasn't fun holding it back, so we jerked the insurance last year and haven't looked back. We're still feeling our way,but having a hell of a time. Last week we ran our best...

    Been busy... driving

    ... so I haven't been posting. Sold my '69 Bee, that I hadn't driven for 3+ years and did a 180. Myself and my best friend each went out and bought an '08 Challenger SRT. Both hemi orange and both loaded. We've been practically living in the damn things. And what a hoot to drive. These things...

    Indy's have...

    ... arrived. Nice looking heads prepped by Shady Dell. Haven't got the flow sheet as yet, but I'm sure the numbers will be up there. Poor pictures, but they give a decent representation of the port size. The iron head is '452 b/b piece. Ports are huge. The int. widow is 2.4X1.375"...

    Getting there.....

    Well. After installing the crankscraper, we've turned our attention to the engine plate, and started mocking up all the hardware. Very time consuming but It's coming. We still have to rounte the coolant lines, fuel lines for the carb, and fuel line and regulator for the NO2, but the hard part is...

    Weekends are a drag

    Running lean and we couldn't get the NOS bottle up to pressure, so we were fat on that side, but http://videos.streetfire.net/video/65-Dart-St-Thomas-Dragway_185977.htm The camera is new and I'm just learning the curve............ The new exhaust sounds nasty, but I went back to the...

    NOS results...........

    ...kindof . Went racing on Sunday. Big weekend, so we had little chance to to test 'n tune. We had two dial ins then onto eleminations. First pass on the motor, we ran a 10.75 @ 122 mph. Not bad on a fairly warm day on a street setup. No chance to fine tune. 2nd pass and used the NOS...

    Dominator seems to work.

    First t&t of the season. No chance to fine tune. Just swapped the 950HP for the 1050 dominator. Track was cold but we still managed our best times yet. And, we were shifting at a rather safe 6500RPM. Results...... 60'... 1.45 (Finally!) 1/8 et at 6.54@ 103 MPH 1/4 et at 10.39@ 127.4 MPH. A...

    Canadian drag racers......

    may want to respond to your member of parliament, to this letter I recieved from my drag strip. In a nutshell the Can. government wants to ban All leaded gas use. This will effectively force all racing venues to shut down. THIS IS SERIOUS! The letter....... The End of Canadian Drag Racing...

    Offset filtering..........

    In an early A body, is an adventure, to say the least. Took me 3 years to finally end up here. The last set-up was... marginal, so we moved it around and upgraded. This is a comparison to the new parts, with the old. Perhaps it'll help out some others contemplating this move. You...

    Carb change.....

    Been planning this for, well, since the engine was built. We've upgraded from the 950 HP, to this, a 1050 dominator. I'm told the stroker will like the extra plenum and carb. First we checked all the rollers to make sure there were no clearance issues after last year. Lots of grinding went...

    950HP to Dominator

    Looks like it's meant to be. Think it'll compliment the new gearing and expected R's. Looking forward to flushing this toilet in the spring. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v77/zackweiler/dominatorcarb006.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v77/zackweiler/dominatorcarb005.jpg

    Good and bad........

    Good: We're now begining to lift the front runners and improve on the 60's. Bad: My driving sucks, and we had a bad miss at the top, and lost a lot of time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fX0jGAGaERM New formula in the carb incl. rec. float level. Have to wait for a couple of weeks to see if...

    Results...............

    We went to test 'n tune last night. Air was good, track was cold. We also ran with the MT radials, since we weren't really out to prove anything. I asked Zack (my son) to 1-2 shift at 4500 and not to exceed 5 grand through the traps. The time was, 11.89@ 101 MPH. He actually let right up on...

    Thick.

    Had my MP replacement block sonic tested before boring. I don't have the sheet here, but I will post the numbers. Numbers were taken at the thinest (about 2/3 down cylinder) part of the block. Above and below this area, the cylinders are, or almost simese. Average thickness on the major thrust...

    Lifter clearancing

    I'm using a 340 repro block for my build, and there are clearance issues when using roller lifters. And there is a choice lifter to keep the grinding to a minimum. These are MP pieces. Crane is now the supplier for these. The 'rivets' are not as thick as other man. A couple of shots.........
