Hundreds of guys must have done something wrong. Nothing fancy with our setup. Just put it together right and tuned it. No magic sauce.
Just got an email, the run was 7.96 at either 96 or 99. He's looking for the slip. He doesn't have a scanner, but he may be able to take a pic...

We never dynoed the car, built it and ran it. I think he was trapping mid 80s in the 1/8. Just sent an email asking.
My cousin's 289, seems heads and block have 302 on them *somewhere*. Been too long, but I think the heads have 302 cast and the block has 302...
lol We have access to a machine shop, so unless there's something wrong with the heads we'll give'em a good once over, maybe even twice, and bolt...
Not *quite* hijacking this, but when would you want to go hotter or colder with the plugs? I've heard a lot of round-a-bout answers, nothing that...
Nice way to put it. We ran the 270H because the bottom isn't balanced, peak power is already at 6700-6800RPM according to the program we use,...
Car is right at 3200 with driver, fastest run was 7.98 in the eighth mile. 60 ft was a 1.6 or 1.7 launching at around 4000.
Yep. Those heads are awesome, essentially no restrictions on the intake or exhaust in this setup, I can't see there being anything left to get out...
I vote AFR. We built my cousin's 289 with AFR 165 heads and to this day when he runs it at the track people still accuse us of lying about his...
Awesome. This is sounding easier than I thought it would be. Thanks. :)
The barrel clips aren't fixed to the body are they? I'll have to be able to get to the back, right?
Got another question, the trim on the sides looks like it has a nut on the back side, what about the trim outlining the black on the top of my...
That's what I was afraid of. Just tinkering with them a little while ago, seems easy enough to get them off. Do they have any bracket behind...
Just in case I screw mine up, where can I get the replacement metal Comet emblems? The chromed, cursive Comet logo behind the rear windows and on...
Thanks guys.
What do I need? Can out be used with any paint?
Got the cowl on there, plug welded it, turned out quite nice. Now, on to the paint. My 74 has the big bumpers and a plastic/rubber cover, do I...
lol Me too!
