If you go onto the video and notice the host 'Michelle' (wife) there are other vids of the car.

Two vids on YouTube from Thursday...

I'm using the common -1 head with some good porting and machining for the good TD rocker system. Just a misunderstanding because the way I short-handed my description.

Yessir...our local track Milan Dragway has a once a month (Saturday) "Heads-Up" race with about 5-6 different categories ...I'm doing All-Motor which uses NMCA NA10.5 rules. Ima sitting duck but I'm just trying to have fun with some friends and basically use hand-me-down/obsolete parts. There...

"480" Indy -1/Ti intakes MCH cnc, 840 net lift, Indy T/R 2 850 baseplate 750 airhorns calibration and parts by Thumper carbs, TD rockers, KB low-deck block 4.5" bore, 14.5cr, Dry sump, home made 2 1/8x4 headers It's about 2700# now and I have to weigh 2835ish for my class

Thanks! There's probably a 130 in it I'd hope. Mainly the front end/bumpsteer making it as good as possible with as much Caster as possible with this junk MF aftermarket K kit.

I was able WITH HELP (mainly my buddy Jerry) to get the car out yesterday for some test hits on the new motor, trans and suspension settings. IT TAKES A VILLAGE. All footbrake passes, 32 degrees timing, old carbs untouched from the old motor. First pass after the burn-out from 'idle' it has a...

Win some of that money, let's go!

I have 2 4150 '1050' bodies and fancy baseplates to go on next. They have annular boosters so if switch to oxygenated fuel they'll lend themselves to that. 4500's would probably be faster but the hoodscoop and everything else is set up around 4150's.

No luck racing, I had several leaks. The valley on one bank and the inspection cover fasteners. While the intake was off saw that the TD stand bolts were leaking oil into the intake ports. Also, took the valvecovers off to check lash and saw severe moisture ..ooooof! Two 'dog pellets' and...

Well done, congrats on running well and the round wins. What was the DA?

If you plan to spray it then stay away from dual plane intakes IMO.

They are the old proform '750' bodies. The lid on the INDY TR has approx 1/2 raised mounting surface below that I have 1/2" Wilson anti-reversion plates which should be used on every line-of-sight intake that uses a carb IMO. I made my own spacer for the LID because the plenum is small and the...

YES!/agree but she had my sandwich ready in the other hand so, I'm tolerant. lolol But good advice!!!

Trying for tomorrow but my valleypan inspection cover and 4 wheeler are giving me trouble. If rain holds away then this weekend either way.

Thanks! Until I get a few hits on it, I'll be nervous for many reasons including the performance.

Let's hope!

I assumed you meant street and high durability. I stand by my recommendation it's all shelf stock as well.

Where'd you go? Assuming you have a good block, I'd do minimal overbore and target 11:1 maximum. 3.91 Molnar crank/ 270 TF heads/ HS rockers/ 265ish @ 050 .680" net lift roller 108lsa/ Alloy caps and main studs/ partial fill block/ Indy 4500 intake with a good clean-up and a 1050 4500

Looking good Don. Good luck this weekend!

I remember you 'recently' working with Joe's motor and learning he passed soon after. Did the family sell that car?

Good stuff John! Yes I recall some of these guys. I think about death possibly a little differently, where I don't believe there is nothing left EXCEPT memories. Even some of us get occasional 'visits' which is a blessing. I'm remembering Randy "Labrat" from Moparts now. In my mind he too was...

What were the usernames on Moparts?

"480" -1 heads .840 roller KB block (low deck) about 14.5:1 Cam is about 285 @ 050 Nothing exotic but I've put some attention to details.

Things seem to be OK so, I'll be out testing this weekend. Here's a short after taking it around the block...

Good luck!

That's thoughtful to keep a list of those who've past, I'm sorry for your loss'. I'm sure some of those had a internet name can you correlate any?

Without reading all this thread, I feel you can drop the mic right here and be done/right.

Thanks, this is ANOTHER reply I appreciate in noting there are many qualifiers. Would the motor make any more power with Holley carbs on a dyno? Separately, would the car be quicker with Holley's? Would the car be faster with a working hoodscoop and airpan? How good is the converter? Are the...

Thanks! It wound-up being 6.7ish based souly on the crank stroke and piston I had.
