Plaid is very popular in Boulder City! The different colors
hide all the extra dinners quite nicely!

Sam is your car running very far under the NHRA index as of yet yet?
We could not get ours to run very well over 5500 Rpm with the 2 Brl.
and it screams 7000 plus with 4 Brl. when required.
Maybe we just did not work on it long enough!

I've gone 13.70s at Q weight at my home track. Loaded up and went straight to the Columbus Sportnational and went 13.82.
I have to shift at 5400 5600. Stops pulling on the top end around 5600. The last 200-300 it's just going along for the ride.... The reduction to 182 is going to be worth 55 pounds and about 8 hundredths in the 1/4. Not nearly enough.

My 307 Chebby goes on it's nose at about 5700. So did my 6 cylinders.

The 318 2bbl motor has two major issues... Intake/carburetor and Valve clearance. Right now I'm using a cam at .050 and I have .025 clearance on the intake and .040 on the exhaust. If they would allow a 4 eyebrow 318 replacement piston, the combo would be good at 185 hp and would pull high rpm with more cam... Btw the 69 motor has .031 less clearance.

Hey! I still have my red metalflake helmet - it's hanging out in the pole barn. It's kinda faded.

For all my friends here...and no disrespect to any one in the business, but if you're using a store bought transmission in a low horsepower combination, you're probably leaving a bunch of ET on the table..That goes for the rest of the driveline too, right Billy Boy?

I can assure you that there is nothing store bought about any part on this car.... This car has been 11.60s with a 10-1 340 motor with stock x heads .525 hydraulic cam, 750 on 93 pump gas. All the driveline parts are super lite...

Is that good?

That was a FWIW, Sam .That's all

I gotcha. No offense taken. I can only imagine how slow the car would be with a bone stock 727. Experimenting, I put the 318 2bbl and intake on that 340 motor and it wouldn't go past 5800 and only went 13.40
