That engine set up with a low tension ring package?
You're really going balls-out with this build, I hope the suspension can handle it on the street lol.
Yes low tension GFX Ring Pak, second ring is Napier and the top ring is stainless steel nitrated. At this point I don't know if I ever would use low tension rings again. I do not believer there is that much gain from using them. It is a catch 22 situation is my thought.
The motor has some blow by so I am trying to control the oil from entering the cylinders on the NOS Hit. At some point I will be upping the NOS to about double what it has now.
Rear suspension will at some point be swapped out with the 9" I got cut up and ready to go. Ladder Bars & Coil Overs will be on the menu for that one as of now.
This will not be a surprise to hear.... The previous owner welded the front hanger boxes when they did the inboard moving of the leaf springs about 3/4 of an inch "CROOKED". I have been trying to adjust it so it goes straight on the hit. I have relocated the centering pin to help. There is NO Room to move the spring forward in the box it hits it. So the choice was either change up the boxes or weld in the front support for Ladder Bars........
I drive the wheels off of this car. It will soon see some track time after I get the shifter hooked up and the rest of the junk installed........ I would rather take my time and do everything right and the way I like it then rush it.
