it has a 1050 Dominator. I'm going to experiment with the jetting this weekend at NED. I know it's probably jetted a bit fat based on the plug color.
I'm going to review the cam card because the guy who built the engine says valve lash should be .022 but they were set at .024 by the guy I bought the car from. Something doesn't add up there.
The W2 heads are supposed to be good. they are the race heads, not the econo heads.
The torque converter issue got confirmed last weekend. The guy I bought the car from runs the same trans and converter that I have in his current Duster. He just had his converter reworked by a shop in Conneticut ( this guy apparently use to work for Frank Lupo, but opened his own shop in Conneticut when Lupo moved to Delaware). He ran a 10.37 @ 127 at LVD this past Sunday. He was running High 10.50s prior.
I'm heading to NED this Saturday to do some test runs. I'm going to jet down the Dominator, install a different carb spacer that I got from Steve Clukey, and set my ladder bars down one hole. As for the rear shocks, like I said earlier, they're older Competition Engineering models and I can't find any info on them anywhere, not even on CEs website. So I have no idea what the do with them as far as changing any settings. They only have one knob at the bottom of each shock but there's no labeling so I don't know which direction loosens them or which direction tightens them up. Right now the knobs on each are set full counterclockwise.
