    Can't use tubes in Weld Wheels Draglites?

    You're absolutely right, I've raced all over this country and I've only had one track do a real thorough inspection on my car. It was LACR in Calif. Even at the some of the national races I participated in it seemed that the inspectors picked out a few items and checked those items on the...

    Can't use tubes in Weld Wheels Draglites?

    Make sure your tractor tubes meet NHRA requirements I've seen several guys turned away because of wrong tubes. The tractor tubes that were on my car when I bought it were not correct.

    Formula to shave pistons to reduce compression ??

    6-71 small block build.

    I'm just finishing mine up currently playing with the Hilborn injection before taking it to the track. Definitely go 8mm and 3" belt. There's enough pulleys out there that you can just figure where you want to start and go from there. Mine came with 50 & 52 which is pretty lame but that has...
