Flat Leafies

Well, it's kind of hard to say.

On 5/30/04 I changed the broken sure-grip in the rear and ran a best of 12.387 @ 110 MPH, 1.873 60' with open headers.

On 6/27/04 I installed the new springs & shocks, installed a set of mufflers and ran a best of 12.59 @ 107 MPH, 1.873 60'.

Then I realized I had the springs on the wrong sides and swapped them.

On 7/25/04 I ran a best of 12.976 @ 105 MPH, 1.983 60', but I found a broken pushrod, so that day's runs were worthless.

The rest of 2004 went pretty much the same way, things breaking here and there.

5/29/05, after changing the torque converter and fixing a few other miscellaneous things I ran a best of 12.492 @ 106 MPH, 1.755 60', still through the mufflers.

On 6/26/05, I removed the 1" spacer under the carb, ran a 12.628 @ 105 MPH, but had my best 60' ever - 1.747.

I haven't run yet this year with open headers.
