Artie, Yea I never got down there to race. If you ever get up this way, let me know! Josh

Sorry, didnt get to see this until now. I'm in Lebanon about 15 minutes east of Hershey. The cam thats in the car is good from idle to 5000 I believe. Where are you located? I run at Beaver Springs and Maple Grove.

As soon as I'm ready to buy one, I think i'll try dynamic. I hear good things about them.

Ok, sounds good guys! I am going to check into converters and maybe some carb tuning. I will keep you updated if I make any gains. Thanks for the help! Josh

Ok, I will double check my timing. Do you think the car is capable of 12's judging by the MPH?

It has a steel crank. Thanks for the heads up.

At this point I just would like to get into the high 12's with this combination. What converter companies would you recommend? Do you think my goal is achievable? I see many cars in the 12's with the same MPH.

Someone told me that launching from an idle can have a little bit higher flash on the converter and give me a little better launch. Dont know how true this is but kinda makes sense why the 60' time is slightly better from idle.

Ok, Im using a 255 M.T. drag radial with super stock springs and Competition engineering shocks. Traction is not an issue at all. It doesnt spin at all. It has 3.91 gears and the carb is crisp with no stumbles or anything. I believe timing is 18 initial and 36 degrees total. It really just seems...

Hi guys, I have a 69 dart with a mild low compression 440. Has a small cam, headers, and a 770 holley street avenger carb. The car went 13.3 @ 104. My 60' times are 2.0 if I leave from idle. If I bring it up on the converter it will do 2.1. My question is, should I go with a higher stall...

Will these heads perform better than the 452's that I have now? The compression gain with the 516's should help right?

Sounds good! I am looking to get some more compression out of this motor without changing the bottom end.

Will these heads perform well without the larger exhaust valves?

How would these work on a 72 440? It has 452 heads on it now. Would I get some more compression with the 516's? Thanks!

Is has a 6.5 power valve on the primary and none on the secondary. Yes, the gas is 10% ethanol. Thanks guys!
