    How old are you and how long have you raced

    I started racing 42 years ago this summer and it seems like it was just yesterday. The track is still there, but I no longer race at the little country 1/8th since the shutdown is a little short for todays speed. Probably had some of the best times of my life there. Tom

    Small block w/ 3.79 crank

    There are lots of ICON pistons available for the 4" stroke crank with a compression height of 1.445" in most variations except for the dome pistons that come with a 1.465", but they are all made with the .984" pins. Using a 1.445" compression height piston would be great with a 6.250" rod IF you...

    Small block w/ 3.79 crank

    If go-fish has a 2.100" rod journal 3.79" stroke crank then he can't get a 6.123" rod with a .984" pin, so the BRC pistons are of no use to you unless you can rework a set of rods, or just buy a set of pistons that have a .927" pin. Tom

    No, it's another Hornet Hatchback that's in nicer shape than the tan one. I bought the tan one off of a mountain top in Western North Carolina and the red one came from Alabama. Here's some photos from the N.C. Craigslist ad for the tan one. When I got back to Indiana I stopped at a carwash...

    Small block w/ 3.79 crank

    You had previously mentioned about buying that set of BRC pistons that are listed in the for sale section. Those use a 6.123" x .984" rod with a 3.79" stroke crank. That set of pistons are about half price of what any new set cost today. Tom

    Small block w/ 3.79 crank

    Connecting rods are bushed. It's just not cost effective to push out a bushing, bore the hole oversize, re-install a bushing, bore, and hone for .002" difference in rod length. You are not going gain anything by increasing the rod length from a stock 6.123" to a 6.125". Sell the Scat rods and...

    How a New 426 Hemi/ 440 Wedge Block is Machined @ Energy Manufacturing

    The OEM has had machines for over a 100-years built specifically for machining blocks at a fast rate. When you make a million of them a year you can afford to have custom built machines that get it on. Henry Ford had an Ingersoll milling machine in 1912 that could machine multiple blocks at a...

    How a New 426 Hemi/ 440 Wedge Block is Machined @ Energy Manufacturing

    10-12 hours of machining to take a raw casting to retail. I am going to guess that those machines are in the $250 an hour range, so that's $2500 to $3000 worth of machine work. This will help explain why a new block cost so much. Tom

    Torque converter bolts?..

    Laugh as you may, but this is an area that you need to pay attention to. Just as there always critical areas you have to pay attention to on anything mechanical. If it takes 44 post to get peoples attention and get the correct bolts installed then so be it. There is not a lot of clearance...

    What is the green light for on the rear of NHRA Pro stock cars?

    That's on there so they know they have the data acquisition system turned on. They flip a switch at the back to turn it on. Not turning it on just wastes a run because you have no data to work with for the next run. Tom
