Long valves on W2's with .600 lift?
It's a Mopar performance billet crank... 1993 vintage I believe.
Not sure on piston weight but the old Ross were 710 grams IIRC. These will be under 500 I think.
Manley makes a Racemaster intake with the right stem and 2.02 head. Tough to find a 5.140 exhaust... they make a 5.165. Ferarra does not... called Si and they don't have blanks in stock right now. Baxter Engine is a Manley dealer.
Manley makes a 5.165 with a .250 tip... grind it?
Installed spring height is 1.950.
I'll buy new retainers, 7 degree keepers and locks.
I have AFCO twin tube shocks. 7" front-9" rear. Been freshened and revalved. Today most guys run a 6" travel shock on the RF since they use so much travel up there... mine will be a bit less. The high dollar shocks are all monotube.
We use two shocks on the LR...the LRF pins the tire to the track (no spring on that one). Very stiff on compression. It's a single adjustable with a Schrader valve and is pressure adjustable. The other LR will use an 85-100# rate coil over spring...just enough to hold up that corner of the car at rest. Once you hit the gas it's useless.
Our TRACK rules do not ban the Hemi... never mention it. Most sanctions do not allow the two spark plugs and/or the distributor less ignition on an LS... but you can run a crank trigger on a SBC...stupid. The two plug deal goes back to running two magnetos something no one in dirt lates would run anyway. Obsolete rules.
They fear the Mopar's so much in the lower classes that you often can run 220 Dart heads but can't run 40 year old W-2 heads. Most call them WZ heads... a misprint that is in a hundred rulebooks. Recently I saw a rule book that outlaws those unbeatable J heads... give me a break.
I'm putting a Studebaker logo on my valve covers... let the Chevy boys figure it out.
