I have gotten a new cell number due to my job with more traveling. And my previous carrier having horrible reception in alot of areas out west. My new number is 715-409-9018. I liked your green dart... That thing looked badazz doing wheelstands!!!

It's about time you came back. Car looks great!!!

Ok just got off the phone with Rick from A&A. Guitar Jones is 100% correct in 99% of applications. In my application, where we drag race on ice the trans will spin up so fast in 2nd gear and rattle the sprag so hard it could fail which Rick has had experience with in mud drag racers and...

I'll call rick tomorrow and get the answer why not to start out in 2nd.

Thanks, one of these days I'd like to clean up the wiring and get rid of the stock underdash wiring and just run the required wires that I need. The car is still street legal, if you were wondering why I still had the wiring in.

I have a PPP shifter http://www.precisionperformance.com/home.htm And I have a custom built VB by Rick Allison from A&A trans http://www.aandatrans.com/ Here's the best pic I have of it...

I was told to never start out in 2nd gear. I can't remember why, but I do remember the trans has to start turning before it hits 2nd otherwise there could be catastrophic failure. Maybe it's the rule for just my VB but I was told to start in 1 then shift to 2nd then come out of the burnout...

I have reverse VB and have a clean neutral after drive. Works great. So the shift pattern is P-R-1-2-3-N Maybe you'd like that?

I ran at Rock Falls a long time ago when I had a stock headed 340 and the duster was pink lol... These gears would work great on asphalt I think. I was running 104 in 2nd gear at the stripe... Yeah it doesn't have any problem reving up:thumbup:

It's at the council grounds state park in Merrill..

We had 49 cars last weekend.. With Miss Wisconsin being there this coming weekend I'm thinking we'll have even more... The weather is supposed to be nice on Saturday too.....

I'm running a 358 ci SB with a built 904 and 5:13 rear gears.... You should have stopped in and said Hi... They would be worth a try next year. I have about 43 hours into the set I currently run, I wasn't looking to build another set anytime soon lol... But less sidewall may work...

Here's some video for you guys... Here's some from the 8.0 class, I run this one just to warm up for modified... YouTube - R5P7 Duster having fun in the 8.0 class at merrill ice drags 2011 Here's video from the Modified class, I took second to Shawn Anderson. Some of you may remember...

Well here are some pics with what I started with. I know the car is not quite up to snuff with NHRA specs... I've never really done any sheet metal fabrication besides small patch panels on body work. Needless to say my BA would be pissed if he found out I was knocking tin in my free time...

Well good luck with your build. You will love the engine when it's done. Both of my engines are a blast to run!

A few things here... These engines are 12:1 not 9.5:1 At 9.5:1 you will not make 840 IMO.. Also these heads do not work OOTB.They need extensive work to even make them usable. And to make them flow 410 they need a full CNC port job, not just SOME work. I hope you got all your accessories...

IIRC 4 speeds and 904's have the same length drive shafts.....

yeah, we have the roundy round tracks on a few lakes here as well. Chili is a must!!! I believe the concession stand sells it. But racers always have food as well. I usually make a crock full of chili every weekend... GTS340- Well if you're gonna be watching the races and drinking beer all...

Thanks for the replies guys!! Maybe see a few of you there..

Every weekend is a good weekend. Unless of course it's super cold (below zero) or very warm and rain/sleet, very seldom does that happen. He haven't canceled a day in a few years now. Every weekend there are nitrous cars, blown gas/alcohol, door slammers, stock, and outlaws.. Merrill is a...

My vote would be the Ritter block. Kent put alot of work into this to make it what it is today...

I'd have to agree with you. The Steering arms looks to be inline with the LBJ. If this is the case ackerman is not solved....

As Brian said the drags are about 150 miles from Fort McCoy, but well worth the drive!!! From Fort McCOy it would be an easy drive, Hwy 21 east to 39/51 north.... Brian, we have talked about something in the summer, but we can't find a venue that would let us use their roads. Also insurance...

Did you come last year Brian? Kruegers from up by you have one of the records with their Green Jeep. I believe they own a logging company????

Yes we spend lots of time on our tires. I have a set of 295/50's and it took about 5000 screws per tire. About 43 hours to put them all in...
