Default Re: Update E-F/SA Bird Build...

Thanks Bob!

Made it down to 4 cars last night, at Bunker Hill... went -.006 red and ring and pinion let go just past 60 ft mark, as my 60ft was the best all day... those gears have 150 passes on them, in this car, and i ran them quite a bit in another car... so i guess they earned their keep... I am going back to the 4.33 set, since i already have them. Gonna try to get them swapped out this week...If i dont get them done by this weekend, i will take the '62 Catalina this weekend...but, it will be out by the following weekend, no doubt. I ordered new ring bolts and pinion nut today... I hope the 4.33s dont kill the launch too much...It was really liking the 4.56s...atleast in the 1st 60ft, anyway...hehe
