The grid is great! A crank trigger is preferred which requires locked out distributor to run. But if you don’t wanna spend the money on a crank trigger, the locked out distributor will work fine with the grid. You will not be able to run the grid without locking the distributor.

John, if my car was done I wouldn’t be going to this race. Way to hott. It just becomes not enjoyable at some point. And those temps are it. Happy Father’s Day by the way

Oh that is freakin awesome!!!! Thanks for sharing John

We are finally getting close to my 540 being ready for assembly. After the block and heads were at machine shop over the winter, the block main housing bore was successfully repaired along with opened up to 440 mains. The block was then square decked and finish honed with torque plates. The...

Just some nice photos with the beautiful sky in the background. From some angles the hood isn’t too bad lol. Still can’t wait for the 6 pack hood to go on. After going over all the time slips, it seems so far, we gained 1 tenth and 2 MPH goin from the 540 to the 572.

Ya the Quaker big bucks race is nice to go to. Wish we were goin there and hey who knows maybe weather drives us to Quaker. I just know right now it’s hard for me to go anywhere out of town being that my daughter is so young. Keystone is just easy cause it’s so close.

Good luck John. Wish I got to see ya again this weekend. Next outing planned for us is July 5-7 at keystone.
