When the oil hole was lined up, did you try putting the rocker shaft back on and letting the primer run for a bit?

This might be the problem in your case. You have to fill the hollow shafts before you will see oil oozing out the rockers. You probably aren't seeing the oil ooz out because the shafts aren't full yet so you rotate past the alignment of the oil passage. It's a catch 22. Next time you try...

My only concern with using strings would be if the strings stretch, changing the length depending on how hard you pull. If stretching isn't an issue I guess that would work.

Be sure to do a rim/tire compensation before you set toe.

Hub, not the wheel.

I agree, depends on the guy doing the alignment.

Just hold the gauge firmly against the hub to take the reading. Might need an assistant for caster swings or use your knee to hold the tire so you have both hands free. Are you planning on using turn tables? What is your plan for setting toe?

A fiberglass hood is not legal. Did you mean to say aluminum?

INTAKE: Must use unaltered aftermarket aluminum intake. From the rules.

The adapter is 2 straight round holes. It is the adapter you must use if you use an adapter and it cannot be altered. The adapter is only 1/2" thick. I have dyno tested the stealth and the Edelbrock and there is little difference between the two. My motor liked the Edelbrock better. Send a...

I'm not saying that a smaller carb can't make a lower ET at the dragstrip but for me the test at the dragstrip they used to confirm this was not conclusive proof. There may be better test out there to use as evidence. The article is written in a way to make you believe that the reason the car...

What is the data acquisition system you are using? Thank you.

This bit of information here is what gave it away. Good for you to post all the information you had. Glad you have it running.

I have a few of questions about this statement. You may have answered these already so bear with me. What is the voltage at the battery (volt meter + to batt+ and volt meter - to battery -)? With all the wires connected and the key in the run position . With the meter - connected to the...

It's been a while since I did that testing. We have to run a holley 4412 so the testing was done with a couple of different 2 to 4 bbl adapters and a couple different 4412's. If I recall correctly the power was similar with the 8022 making slightly more. But on my motor the ede. had better fuel...
