    That reminds me of the model a coupe that I saw at a cruise several years ago. The column drop was made from a really nicely curved connecting rod. I asked the owner how he got that curve in it and he said "that's pretty much the way it looked when it came out of the side of the block".

  2. Just a quick bounce we are 8 days and counting from lift off.

    yesterday one of the contenders hollered "Houston we got a problem!!!"but today the rumor mill is that he is all systems go.

    Better watch your back fellas, I hear that some of the fellas are out for blood. :D :D :D
     
  3. Someone mentioned that I should just throw this out there. Bet you're wondering what this all about. Questions? :D

  8. If you ask most people just driving a car to the track and racing it is crazy. o_O

    Looks like we got a couple fellas taking the round about way to the track this year.

    But maybe crazy is a good word for it.

    Oh @Tim to answer your question it appears as though everyone will have proof that they ran.

    So you are going to drive from Joplin to Asbury by way of St Louis in a blown Willys?

    Sounds perfectly normal to me.

    See you there, -Abone.
     


  12. The four speed works... traction is a problem... I pulled some clutch out of it, and it did better. But I aint showin my hand to you yahoos!
    This was my first pass off the trailer, spun, left off, shifted... good thing I got the 7400rpm chip in the rev limiter on the 454!!

  13. I launched in front of the house for a baseline before I start tuning yesterday. There's no getting it nailed down in first or second (street tires and asphalt). I'll never pry this tranny out of the Raven's hands. :D

    This is the last bump for this thread. I'm off to the races this evening.
