Like Chicken mentioned, he was only able to go 9.50's. The late 472s and early 500 cylinder heads (stock) will flow 240 cfm with their OEM little...
Excellent coverage! I'm just now getting to see all this. Thanks for sharing.

Sounds alot like the one I'm working one. Thanks for the reply- appreciate your time.
Mike VV- on your Anglia weighing 1865 lbs; was that with a mild steel or CM cage? Also; on your SBC, was that iron or aluminum heads. Thanks
Everything we build is with the intent to "thrash" on it; even if it is a driver. To me it just goes with the territory. It's seriously sad and...
Outstanding!
I hope so- we're building a Dart SHP 400 SBC and will be using the Howard's +.300 longer roller lifters.

Looks great! Car sits really good. Thanks for posting your new wheel/tire sizes. How tall are the new 145's on front?
Very nice! Sure sits good.
This here, exactly. Here in Stanton, TX (population 3000) we had a parts house known as Walker Auto Parts. After 40 years the parts guy retired...
I'm currently doing a Model A with a FOX body 8.8". Perfect width to keep wheel close to the body. The only downside I can see with them is the...
Old # 12 sure does sit good.
Great thread! Can't beat the old pics.
Absolutely take on outside work. I'm 51 now and have been doing it since I was in my late 20's. I've got a very loyal bunch of customers that I...
Thank you sir.
