1966-1967 400 and 425 Olds engines use a .921 Dia conventional hydraulic lifter. However, the 1985-1988 Olds 307 with peanut ports, rated at 138 HP, and the 1981-1985 Olds 350DX diesel engine use a .921 hydraulic roller lifter. Last edited by SSDiv6; 08-29-2017 at 07:24 PM. |

Re: My 88 Olds wagone U/SA 10 Pennies
Here is rear end set up I hope for the last time. I think pattern is good as it took around 6 adjustments to get this pattern. Scored a set of used complete wild wood brakes. $215 shipped. The rotors were shot but I have a new set in the drawer that are drilled and were spares from old car I sold. Also the caliper mounts have a large hole for big Ford bearing that I will need to address. Total $6862.98

Some have been saying that I don't need to drag a big tire all the way done the track when I'm a low HP car.

Re: My 88 Olds wagone U/SA 10 Pennies
Jeff are you looking at the lightweight radial or is that bad for such a heavy car?

Re: My 88 Olds wagone U/SA 10 Pennies
They are probably right Jeff, when i raced the1968 BelAir wagon it was hard pulling those tires but actually we started airing them up a little at a time and we would go faster and it still hooked okay it also depended on the track but it hooked almost everywhere.
