Ours ran 11.1 @ 126 MPH into a 22 MPH Headwind and 3000 Density Elevation. It has just turned 500 Miles and seems to be pulling timing and stumbling. last 300 Ft. 1.61 60 Ft. (New Last Saturday)

No Sir.

My boy will be racing his 2023 hellcat "Last Call" at MATS this week but it is not the E85 Version.

Justin's car was originally built by his father Jeff years ago and was one of the world's fastest Stock 340 and a real show piece and a member of their family. John will fix the 67 car as it is so rare that it is well worth a lot of trouble to repair. My understanding is that this would be...

Within 60 Seconds every lobe of camshaft is rounded off flat and the engine is full of metal everywhere! Many of the 340 Stockers I race against have 300+ on the valve seat and 500+ Lbs. @ .400 Lift

Yes But I do not recommend it to anyone as the required spring pressure is enormous to try to get them to comply and not bounce and be a total killer on everything!

A really nice piece! I like the mirrors. I race an B1 Arrow 30 years ago but we extended the Wheelbase 15 inches.

It could be much cheaper if you pick a class that does not have many fast cars in it and you do not need to be a top Alpha Dog! I finished in the top 3 in the Division the first few years when I only had about $6,000 (1995 Dollars) in my entire Demon. I had a small pickup and an open trailer...

Roller Rockers are now legal but I do not use them. I can play with the pads on the cast adjustable rockers to play with the rate of lift to get a bit of more lift earlier. No roller lifters = they would be cheaper than the billet cams and tool steel coated solids that are legal and most guys...

Stock Lift as produced Basically I take the fastest rate of lift roller camshaft I can fine and reproduce and reduce it to stock lift. Pretty much square when finished. Then take a tool steel or ceramic bottom lifter with insane Valve Spring Pressure (200++) on the seat and never let it idle at...

It depends on how much you can do yourself. If you have to pay a top engine builder = $10,000 + and you supply all the core parts. The Wagon is a small Valve (1.78/1.50) with a .375 lift camshaft and not much compression to work with. To be competitive you better find a way to make this 145 HP...

NHRA Facebook Feb. 14 is a easy way to find it. Maybe someone can post it on here for me?

At the National Race in Vegas last NovemberI had a .0000 reaction time. The track awarded me a bag of Donuts!

I am not aware of the Low gear being any weaker than the standard ratio. Currently and last year we have a transmission that is the spare with the production low gear in our Superstock 340 Duster (3400+ lbs.) instead of the straight cut aftermarket. It makes approximately 600 HP and run High...

1.33 @ 60 / 126 MPH @ 7400

Our Converter Shock Stall to 5900 with a few feet of leaving the line given no tire spin. Shifting @ 7,200 it drops to the same 5,900 on the shifts. Our changes in ratio thou between gears are more extreme than most people. We run some ATI convertorsalso but they are custom done for us to...

There are over 100 different combos of straight cut different ratios in the straight cut Pro Trans gears we utilize. 2.75 / 2.54/1.00 as I recall in factory 904 low helical gears. 2.45/1.45/1.00 in standard plantaries. The straight cuts take less HP to turn but they are a $1,500. set last time I...

4:86 in my Demon 4:89 in my son's

We Always use 2.75 in our stockers at that weight even though they are 500+ HP. Expect close to a full tenth in your 60 if ir still Hooksd!

That should be fine. I shift the stroker big blocks around 6500 but they see 7000+ thru the lights

So do I with a stock pan in my 340 stockers = But we do a lot of internal baffling.

I have run 7500 thru the lights with a single line given everything else is top shelf in the engine with a stock stroke 440 or 383.

Try to only go up and down and not side to side when polishing. Do not let them get hot!

Yes Sir = Never see that happen. However, we use a super very expensive two sided tape (Similar to what holds Space Shuttle tiles on) as well as screws to hold the Aluminum segments together. Also be sure 3/4 Plywood on the Floor on 16 centers if you can find it. I prefer tongue and groove...

Another suggestion from 40+ years building trailers = Get one at least 7 ft. outside height. You can use the headroom so you do not bang cross members with you head and you can put some high shelves running along the sides and get junk of the floor.

My son owns and operates one of the Biggest Trailer Manufacturers in our state. He cringes whenever he has to sell a 24 or bigger enclosed trailer to a customer with a 1/2 truck who insists on one that size. Try to get 6,000 Lb each a xles (or even 7,000 lb.)and load range E or higher radials...

We just received a check from Mopar Performance for my son being "Top Finisher" in Super Stock at World Finals! We value and appreciate their support in Sportsman NHRA Racing. He borrowed my 1980 10 Second 1980 Aspen SS/LA 318 for this race. This is the former Paul Rossi Racecar that we...

My only experience is with Big Block Indy stuff

Which Indy Heads. Did you use the Indy Valley cover?

The way NHRA has been hemorrhaging sponsors with contingencies, and the rest either very slowly or finding excuses to not paying period = If we will the race - we still will not make any money and would be lucky to break even. Yet the Stock/Superstock pits (Other Sportmans pits too) are filled...
