    More nonsense from NHRA Tech

    Sometimes it’s best to say nothing until someone else says something. If tech is on the fence with an issue, they might look the other way if they are having trouble filling the field with competitive cars. You know no one likes a boring show especially a track owner, promoter or vendors for...

    More nonsense from NHRA Tech

    I got questions. Who said the manifold was stock dimensions and why would someone send a manifold to Wilson just to be bead blasted? Did Wilson manufacture the manifold?

    MOPAR PLUS Replacement Dash Bezels

    While paint does not adhere well to chrome, mopar did the same thing and I have several dash bezels that have flaking issues, but those are 40-50 years old. More than likely the problem you had is from improper prepping the chrome before painting as in it wasn’t clean enough and therefore a...

    Clutch advice

    I got an APE powerbrute(no longer in business)3800 lbs pressure plate and matching disk made also by Milwaukee Clutch. Its a workout on your leg, but when you get used to it, it’s smooth and it does not slip, AT ALL.

    Clutch advice

    Have one in my 95 z28( I know, yuck right?). Sucks on the street. Custom made by Milwaukee clutch, in/out, grabs hard and harder the hotter it gets. You see short track cars running them, the way they jump from a standing stop/start. Hate to see my flywheel when I replace it.

    Paint it, Clear it or Let It Rip?

    Under the hood? Coating on the outside keeps intake from absorbing heat from under the hood and coating on the inside keep s the fuel mixture cool.

    Paint it, Clear it or Let It Rip?

    Have it ceramic coated and while you are at it have the inside thermal barrier coated.

    Small Blocks

    Back before Allen Johnson stopped racing prostock, he tested both heads on his genIII race Hemi. He found about 1.5 hp difference favoring the IEIEIEIE head so the argument for hot spot of 2 exhaust valves together is debatable, but unlike a hemi, the small block is small and if you went to a...

    Small Blocks

    That is ridiculous, any difference would be made up in lifter preload. Anyway how much can a stock or stock production pushrod set vary in length? +/- .005? For the time and money he spent, he could have bought a quality precision hollow pushrod at a custom length that suited his engine to a T...

    Small Blocks

    Still what I said is true and stock class racers will run a matched set. It’s a lot of work to match a set, but it can be done and there are folks that do.

    Small Blocks

    Ever drive a big block Dart or Barracuda? A 340 Dart will outrun a 383 Road Runner in the quarter mile.

    Small Blocks

    No it would not. You use a shorter, lighter piston with a shorter pin height. Rods would stay the same length. The stroke of a 360 is only a little more than a 1/4 than a 340/318/273.

    Small Blocks

    Those sloppy rocker arms are an engineering marvel, they are light weigh and have excellent oiling design due to flood pool. The only problem is they tend to fail with high lift camshafts.

    Small Blocks

    So what, its a small block.
  22. C

    Small Blocks

    Correct lifter bore angle, thicker cylinder walls and shorter deck height, lighter pistons with shorter pin height. Six head bolts per cylinder. Oiling system that oils rods and crankshaft first. Heads with no two exhaust valves together like a Foooord.

    Intake Manifold Head Hight Alignment

    How do you know the intake is too high? By alignment of the ports or by the gap on the China walls?

    BF Goodrich radial T/A white letters

    Okay, maybe your TA’s have an issue. I was just speaking from my experience with mine. Anyways y’all are stuck in the 70’s/80’s, there are much better performing tires on the market. Get with the times.

    Another NPK question

    I believe with the costs of putting on a show of this caliber, prices are reasonable. The cost of the liability insurance alone has to be stupid.

    Another NPK question

    Just think of the money those guys have in their cars to run in the 3’s in the 1/8 mile. You don’t see them with major sponsors pasted all over their cars.

    Another NPK question

    You want to attend a high end race? It costs a lot. Price NHRA tickets, that will put it into perspective.
