Watching the rear frame work. Nice.

Sweet!

Crank bolts rubbed the timing cover when the temp moved things around. Same on my 540. ATI makes spacers to get the balancer/pulleys out further from the timing cover.

Popping "willies" didn't seem to hurt my K frame with a big block.

Ever thought about dipping it in acid and then primer? I am thinking of doing my fish that way.

You will have trouble keeping gears in that 8 3/4 rear end if you track the car much.

Did you ever get that MRL stroker running right?

Wanna buy one? I even have the cheezy cover that has 8 switches on it. RMVB.

How's getting the stroker in the fish running right coming?

OK we sorta have a baseline on the fish with the 7.65. FINALLY! What MPH and how much did it weigh with the driver? Why didn't you take it down the track yourself? I also hate a SCS shifter, especially RMVP

Whew! Is the engine running right now?

The fish is wrecked? I haven't followed this thread much after it went off the fish.

What does Mike have to say about how the motor is running? Could the problem be installation related such as exhaust or fuel delivery? Something wrong with the voltage to the ign? That thing should run great. Whats up?

Is that the same carb it was dyno'd with? Got an 850 double pumper you can put on it? I have a couple Holleys I will never need or use that you can have for the shipping just to get that hotrod going.

There is a 78 Macho that was parked around the corner from me for the longest time. It came up missing last weekend. I stopped and asked the guy who was outside (he is in a wheelchair) what happened to it and he traded it to a dealer nearby for a chebby van that had a lift. It was supposed to...

Truck schmuck, stick to da fish. We need to get that thing running like a stroker SB should. You should have to be 'shopping an ear to ear grin to your avitar with eyes buldging wide open at the rapidly approaching highway with that thing. Do you have decent spark plug wires on it? Is the fuel...

My fish at 3050 with me in it went 7.18 at 98+ foot braking with a worn out 3rd in the tranny and a street 'vert. You should be 7.50 at 95 with the full interior weight I guess if things are working right.

When you are in 1st on the street at a stop and gas on it, how many RPM does the 'vert flash to? Which "vert did you get? I used to have a stock unit that would go up to 2800 behind the 416. It has an 11" off the shelf PTC which I have not had a chance to try yet. I have a hard time...

I may have been too hard on the ET streets after trying to get 315 MT drag radials to work. The 275s I had on the fish worked on the street and strip with 500 HP. Get the car aligned with you or your weight in the car. It makes a big difference on an A body IMO.

You may be able yto have your muffler shop add some flowmasters onto those collector headers you already have and go into dumps. That would be kinda close to my setup except I have an X pipe before the charry bombs themn the flows. I am surprised that with 4.10s and the new stroker you are...

Ride? What's that? I have driven the car 5 miles each way to the track on the DRs but how it rides is of little concern. Traction is my only concern. You'll see when you get that fish rolling. My car uses C-16 fuel and has a 1150 Dominator if that is any indication of how the engine runs.

I took the Demon to the track with the new MT 315/60 DRs. They blow as bad as the MT Street ETs did, so the ET streets may not be so bad afterall. With the 416 275-60 Drs worked OK but it was only 60' at 1.60. The Demon is a bunch faster and until I figure out how to launch it I suppose only...

But but but, the engine compartment is still the old blue??? Nice project.

You will learn to hate those street ETs. That is good cause then you will not mind burning the tread off them. You are getting close for sure!

I want a pic of that fish being driven out in the snow!

Heater? You gonna drive that thing in the snow? Make a heater delete plate and 4 bolts, you're done.

Even if you change the exhaust those cherry bombs may be useful. I have 8" long ones between my X pipe and the flowmaster 40s and they really make the sound much less raspy.

Told ya the TTI A body headers woulda been better. They have a tube that slips off so it can go around the steering linkage. Glad you made it through the storms with minimal damage. Why did mike recommend 20W-50 oil?

Man you are gonna be grinning ear to ear the first time you stomp on the gas pedal. Better make darn sure the brake pedal works first! You will also be pleasantly surprised how easy the manual steering is. If 275/60-15 DRs will fit they sure work good under a fish. Instead of trying to...

You ought to paint it the lime green color the rt side is.
