Good stuff Jeff! glad to see you getting close, I am hoping things will turn around next year and I can get back to racing. Does your cam grinder do Ford cams?

I can say some of the fastest FE's around seem to have his designs. PM me and I'll give you his contact info.
His work is like that of a jeweler, the as machined finish looks like others after they polish them. And we checked: every lobe checks perfect.

Well Jeff, I see you are in Vegas. How about some more pics.

Jeff,
I noticed you "retarded the timing in one cylinder" How did you do this, is it built in to your ignition, and if so what ignition? We can use it? I have a old MSD 7AL unit in my car.

No Jeff, you were not the reason I am not running a stick. I have a Turbo 350 already to go which I bought for my old 68 before i decided to run the Jerico. Its a $ thing, but i am thinking with all the $ I need to spend on a converter, maybe I can sell the TH350, buy a used Jerico... hhmmmmm....

Number three qualifier in Vegas....-1.030!

Watched Jeff run 1.03 under on UStream this morning. Big wheel stand (still some correction required when he sat down-see the DRC pic of Jeff from last night) and bet he will get that fixed. Saw a puff at the line but no track clean up so hopefully no harm done. Look forward to seeing his next post.

probably scrubbed and lost at least 3-5 maybe 8 by having the wheels crooked---great way to debut with a whole new program!!! I'm impressed

Still pulls to the right on launch. MPH seems a little slow. And left slick still rubs the body.
After the last run I came back & added some fuel pressure, a few flats preload right side bar and took some tin snips, hammer and what all to the body. Not pretty! Then somebody said Cal Method has an electric body grinder which he kindly loaned me. That's the most aggressive disk I've ever used; I think it would cut the car in half in 15 minutes!
When I got done, i got the clearance Needed and it doesn't even look bad with more radius. Some black duct tape and wolla! It's good now.
That was one awesome / fun wheelie and it went forward then started climbing to a pretty steep angle.
