Killer, you are getting great times from a somewhat mild build, I LOVE IT! We are running very similar setups, excepy for the converter, and you...
Fan, How did you fasten the carpet to the sides and the taillight panel? I am assuming it is glued down to some fibreboard or something but then...
'73, where are you in the Bay Area? I am in Santa Rosa. Are you running the car at Sears Point ? (Infineon for the newer racers) Scott I also...
1-2 gallons is a LOT to "spill" Mine would on occasion burp out a little bit. I cut a gasket out of gasket material for the cap and solved that issue.
Looking at the timeslip database, I just can not fathom the Lentech Maverick sitting in a 7-11 parking lot! Would look cool though!!
11.98 after driving 45 minutes to the track. DR tires and a BENCH SEAT in the front! I know there are MUCH faster cars out there but how many of...
I left mine off..
Hmm, was this for me? A Vic intake with stock heads will be a slug in my opinion. I ran 1965 289 heads, ported to an inch of their life and chevy...

I think with the stock heads on there you should plan a powerband that ends at around 6000rpm and no higher. I had a set well ported, larger...
Jamie, I agree with the polished centerline look. But then again, I am biased!
I never thought of the sending unit wire on the intake as being a conductor and giving a false reading until I read it on the other cooling...
Interesting article a few months ago in "one of" the car mags. They chose the 331 for the above reason, longevity an streetability.
Mine is a '70. No issues with the conversion. (never did add the belly bat though!)
A little notching of the block comes in handy also if you do not want extra vents!
Scott, much to my wifes chagrin, I did just that! Gauge is accurate. (too bad!) Scott
I did a bunch on the plane that we built but it has been awhile so I will let fresher minds tell you. It wasn't hard though.
Parts on order, thanks..
While I had the engine out and the car in paint I rebuilt the front end with new upper/lower control arms, spring seats etc etc etc. But, I did...
