Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
Dale,
the drilling and threading is as you suspected, you will notice the water lines coming off each side of the water pump going into each head. This pumps extra cooling water around the two center exhaust valves. It is a suggested modification that I think is a good idea. And you are correct about this is not your average package. Keep watching, you ain't seen nothing yet

Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
Guys this build is a joy to follow along with. Great work!
Jeff,totally agree with your tire size choice. When we ran quick 8 dragster,we had 12' tires for good hitting tracks and 15's for garbage tracks. Not only where the 15's necessary for marginal tracks,it helped the "ride" down track. Jimmy |

Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
consider experimenting with the "Cobra Head" ties. The design allows the cut off tail to lay flat against the wrapped section.

Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
After a short slow down the building action is amping back up.
Coming soon is the electrical component mounting and wiring runs. This new item just in from Kevin Rodden [K & R Performance] showing his usual beautiful work. Introducing his new Pro-Cube with dial-in display! The two small connectors use fiber optic cable to send the display data. Way cool

Re: Team Woodfin's Bantam Roadster Build
Hot Rodding requires building one of a kind brackets, or in this case, two of a kind.
The roadster cockpit is tight or like Monte says, "real estate is limited" This is plan "D" for mounting the Holley EFI/data logger display, plus K & R switch panel, plus a panel for other controls.
