Default Re: 67 Firebird 400 4 SPEEDcombo questions???

Thanks Dennis, But Im not sure in my racing state I should be giving advice to guys wanting to race Pontiacs with a stick shift. Im fairly new in my program, and very green to the stickshift world. Adam Strang is the veteran here and I think has made the fastest passes with a stick shift Pontiac stocker ever. I think somewhere in the 10.40's. He is alot further along in knowledge and program devolpment then I am.
I'll add a few cents anyway
That 67 400 combo is very good, with either a stick or auto. For the stick combo the basics.
Buy a Gforce or a Jerico. I'm partial to the Gforce because I have one and living in the north east I can drive there and buy any parts I need within an hr.

Start with a Mcleod soft lok. Good buy for the money and very adjustable.
Leaving the line with one of these cars is a finesse game, this is not to be over looked. The clutch is an important part.

Rear gear will between a 4.30 and a 4.88. Depending on the first gear you end up with.

That engine will will most likely want a trap rpm between 6300 and 6800, so gear accordingly.

I cant tell you what it takes to make one of these cars run well and work on the starting line because I still trying to figure it out.

You will need to work hard, and spend money in smart places. If you decide to take it on, I wish you luck. If your willing to put the work in, your reward will be a lighting fast car. But you are going to have to work on it.
