Jimmy Ronzello D/SA in teardown. He was supposed to teardown at Indy, but had to go home for a funeral.

Does anyone know if this teardown was to establish exactly what the specs are for the CJ 5.0 and if so what rods/Pistons were in the motor?
I ask because it would help others who are attemping to do the same.
I know it will run "WELL" under the index and D/SA record.
Thanks

What the hell Rock? First no gloves. Now a-half-a-dozen buttons on your steering wheel.

Geez. Next you'll have one of those bogus Cobra Jet cars.

Rock, I didn't intend to give you trouble, but having been a student of stock and superstock for over 40 years I try to observe everything, especially those who are successful. It is also unusual to see a short throw trans brake button in a fully suspended door car leaving off the bottom bulb. Again, just observing, no trouble intended. Ty

Well it is 10:00 and raining! And Jack is not even here! It is 57 degrees so if it does quit raining, it will take a while to get things going. When I looked at Accu-weather last night, it was calling for 5 hours of rain last night and 8 hours today. But it did not rain at all last night and has just now started this morning, so I am going to quit believing them.

The track was really bad yesterday. From what I heard they were using the VP stuff on the starting line (which was FREE) as opposed to the VHT (THAT WORKS). They are supposed to be using the VHT today, so we will see how that goes.

Well, I now have a working camera, but nobody has their car out, so pics will come later!

More later!

That VP stuff is really crap for automatic cars. Stick cars need a little wheel speed, so may not mind it as much.

Most of the stick SS cars were hooking good, others were problematic at best.
