    Mopowers' 66 Dart Build

    Booo LOL I'd space the bump stop off the frame. See if Calvert had a shorter shock. I like the low look. Helps with hook too. Gotta make it how you want it. :)

    Nova SS 396 sells for 250,000

    All in the ability to hook that GM. They sucked at getting off the line. Tested those cars ran low 14's at 101. High 12's engine in a 16 second chassis issue. The Duster would get out on them and the Nova would get the back half charge. Every GM car I had needed to be wound up tight to run...

    Nova SS 396 sells for 250,000

    Who puts an M-20 box behind a 396/375hp engine? :realcrazy: Should have an M-22 Most of those 375hp novas ran right at 101 in the 1/4 off the lot. Put headers/slicks/tune up on them and they definitely picked up. 340 Dusters were a good match for them as delivered.

    RPM drop and electric fans!

    You are running that energy from the alternator, to the battery and back to the relay location. I know from alt to starter relay is around 8 feet. You are running that power probably ~20 feet. That length creates unnecessary voltage drop to the end user items (fans).

    RPM drop and electric fans!

    From where? Alt or Battery? I agree with other that you may have timing dropping out when in gear, which creates a waterfall effect. If it happens only when the fans are running, may not be the issue.

    RPM drop and electric fans!

    Where are you grabbing power for the fans? If you are pulling it from the battery and running wire all over hells kitchen back to the fans, that is not an efficient approach. JMO, since the fans are likely to run primarily when the engine is running, source power right off the alternator...

    Speedmaster79 Black Friday Sale

    Still has the edelbrock sized port in cc's on the site/data. 170 is the number. CNC is a bit bigger than that, 190+ IIRC. Rely on what they say or tell you... nope. Wouldn't surprise me with those thieves to not update stuff. Still waiting on the heads that they shipped incorrectly a few...

    Speedmaster79 Black Friday Sale

    Those A-holes lost their SB CNC file a few years ago. I guess they never bothered to grab another head to digitize or steal a file from someone else. LOL
