    I know I know it’s not an A body

    But my buddy Tim sure knows how to build some nice engines and do some nice wheelies. We’ve been racing close to 50 years together.

    Finally have this set of 2.08 Edelbrock heads done.

    Took 6 weeks to get Manley 2.08 and 1.60 valves, keepers, LS springs (ya I didn’t stutter), spring locators, and valve locks. Well 5/16 locks came instead of 11/32. Took somewhere around 3 months to get this right minus -040 or -.050 pac 11/32 keepers needed with this spring to get the required...

    Cadamore Racing is almost ready for the 2024 race season.

    Totally cleaned my alcohol carb in my sonic cleaner and put in new floats, gaskets, 150 needles and seats and kicked around leaning it out a hair but I left the 172 jet in for now. Made up new Moroso Blue Max spark plug wires, new AR3911 Autolite plugs, and a new battery. I may pull the covers...

    Is it ok to copy a W5 head and make it better or are we just mad at Speedmaster

    A few months ago a well known small block head porter asked if anyone had a W5 head he could play with. Plan are to copy the W5 head and make some improvements. One of our members loaned him one and the project has began. Since I’m sure “Mother Mopar” had a patient on this what are our thoughts...

    Long drive for nothing

    Took a long drive almost out to Dragway 42 in Ohio to check out a Black n Decker valve grinder. It had a collet Chuck like I’m looking for as my old ball Chuck Souix machine has to much runout. I plan on converting it to a collet setup but some parts are going to have to be made and I have to be...

    Am I looking at this wrong or is Speedmaster offering rpm style big block heads again

    I talked to them over a year and a half ago and asked the why they dropped this head and only sell the Victor copy. He was surprised to hear this and agreed I was right. I told him this head would sell 8 to 1 better. Looks like it’s back or I’m seeing something wrong. Mopar Chrysler BB 440 Hyd...

    My buddies next project for his wife

    They redid a beautiful 440 Six pac roadrunner years ago and my friend painted it for him. Shawn now does most of his own painting and will be painting his wife’s small block barracuda. Been fun following his progress. Not sure what color he is going with yet.

    This weekends big race at keystone canceled. Still to wet more rain coming

    I half heartedly started getting my duster ready for Michael Beards big race at keystone. Seeing forcasted rain on an already soaked track. We just got word it’s canceled so for me that’s probably good news but I sure hate to miss races. From the mobile desks of Michael Beard and Greg Miller...

    Some dyno testing you guys may want to follow on YouTube

    I should have edited this earlier but this is not a test I’m doing or know anything about. I quickly did a copy and paste and had a couple phone calls at the same time. I put it here for your enjoyment. I will probably read the comments but won’t be watching the tests. Trick Flow vs...

    First time in the shop working on back to back days in probably over 2 months

    After getting over my torn calf muscle I was just getting my groove on and I started that three consecutive weeks of getting shots in my bone on bone knees. By the second shot it started getting worse and by the third series I could hardly walk. Well I had regular cortisone shots in both knee’s...

    Pittsburgh hit again. More rain.

    More than 7 inches of rain so far this month. If you thought this was a throwback post to when Pittsburgh flooded last week, you'd be wrong. Today, after work, I ran into the city to capture yet another flood downtown, just as the water was cresting 23'...and it's not done yet. There were a...

    Sounds like new drag racing, donut circuses fines going up.

    I never thought I would like stiffer fines on guys with fast cars but now is a good time for it. Shutting down bridges in Philadelphia and pittsburgh so the A-holes can do donuts is getting out of hand. Of course the local news call it “street racing” which this isn’t street racing. It’s a bunch...
