    Compression

    The thing i notes the most, going from 9.4 to all most 13:1 was when i let of the gas at the end of the track.........Way better engine braking going on. as far as power.......went from a mostly stock 340 to a stroked 408 hard to compare in that way.

    One race and i'm done for the season.

    I also ran a bore scope down each spark plug hole. Was happy to see the burn pattern/ carbon, covers 95% of the piston top. These RHS head are pretty efficient............or maybe the 12.87:1 Compression has something to do with it. :lol:

    Agree. But my" to do list" is vary long, and learning how,......... well, is kinda low on that list. I know i need to bump it up on my list, but there is always something more impotent above it on that list. A garage that has more then two lights in it, a garage that's not so hot in the...

    One race and i'm done for the season.

    Yeah i know but i have only welded Once in my live and it was to weld the tail light Bracket back on my car trailer that had been torn off. I don't want people to see a bugger weld on top of another bugger weld on top of another one. my trailer was at least 1/8 in steel. 25+ year old...

    One race and i'm done for the season.

    I just thought about this.......I thing i know when the crack started. when i was messing with that Demon carb, it was to lean at the top of the rpm and would start to pop(banging is probably a better description) I had to jet it up a lot to fix the problem. There is all ways one cylinder...

    One race and i'm done for the season.

    Just tooting my own horn, took me 3 hours. With a Dremel(on sale at Harbor freight for $14.95) my little butane torch, screwdriver and a small hammer. I think the header will live to see another day. Look so good i was temped to pull out my welder......But i new better. will be welded up...

    One race and i'm done for the season.

    Mine is a dove tail open trailer. but when i lowered my front end, 2 Inch, I have to drive up on blocks or use my trailer jack to make enough clearance to clear the headers as it come off the trailer. May also be a contribute to my issue.

    One race and i'm done for the season.

    All though it a different story, mine being a E body and yours an A body. Back in the day i bought Black jacks, hedmens and Hooker comp headers. all had issues but the biggest one was hanging too low to the ground and catching them on everything(was driven on the street at the time). Finally...

    One race and i'm done for the season.

    Well the gasket was sealing 100% My best AssUMe is that it started cracking around the flange, as it cracked most of the way around the flange on the inside(exhaust port/head side). The crack finally found a way out were it could split. Worried that i my had burnt a Valve or something. I...

    One race and i'm done for the season.

    That is a good idea but i have to replace the gasket which was the original problem so it need to come off anyway. They both need to come off and get fresh gaskets anyways. drivers side suck even more to take off. but there will be no Sawzall in my near future. $800.00 for a painted set and...

    One race and i'm done for the season.

    That is what i was think about. after i got over my poor me. I don't weld, but have bought a 110v mig welder and want to start learning. But not on this. I have a buddy that is a good welder and could probably fix me up. but he is on a hunt and won't be back for 2 weeks. I guess that plenty of...

    7 gal of 112 racing fuel left. Poor boy can't afford a new drum of racing fuel..........But that is not what sidelined me. The end of last year i started to get a bad, back fire when i would let off the gas/decelerate. found that the passenger side head gasket was blown causing the back fire...

    Hardened Valve Seats or Not?

    The lead Does NOT go a way...........break in your motor with some "leaded race fuel". add a gallon to a tank every so often. Valves/ seats will be happy. or spend the money on hardened exhaust seat and be happy. Motor should be happy either way. Just my 2 cents.
