Yes, I was very happy with the gain. That was 3 or 4 years ago now. I have a different intake that John ported for me and am going to lean the carb out some.

That's in the 1/8. Car went 7.07 with the speedmaster's and 6.6x with trickflows. In the 1/4 the best it went with speedmaster's was 11.35, trickflows - 10.68, on the chip with the 1/4 passes.

You are correct.

1.41 60'! That a big improvement from yesterday. What rpm leave?

Congratulations! Glad everything went smoothly. Now comes the fun parts with the family.

60' is as you stated, is going to pick up e.t. on the big end. The converter that's in my car at one point and time the converter that is currently in my car, would only go 1.52 60'. Even after changing from speedmaster's to trickflows, it went 1.48 once and I think that's when it broke, my e.t...

I do have the complete Calvert setup on my car. Mono leafs, cal-tracs, sliders, and their shocks.

Was the 5600 stall the one I got from you when I bought the trans/converter from you?

I get what you are asking about the stall speed. I would like to mention, my car/engine is similar to yours and I 60' 1.42. My converter flashes around 5k as well. It has not changed with 2 different converter's, a turbo action that I got from and one I had redone by PTC that was a turbo action...

That was a ton of rain we got. Water in the basement sucks. Fortunately I'm on top of a hill now basically, and haven't had any issues.

Did your 60' pick up?

8 hours, sounds like you started working a full time job.

That's the stuff that dreams are made of!

I don't know if from street outlaws but he was in plenty of 1320's videos of street racing. Seemed like a really cools dude.

Yes my daughter is perfectly healthy. I pray that nobody has to go through that because in short, it sucked. I only shared that because as terrible as that time was, it made me see how blessed I am.

That's the most important thing, everyone is healthy and goes smoothly. When my wife was 6 months pregnant she got covid and was on way to beyond the is world. The hospital (Magee women's) talked to me several times about taking the baby early because they thought my wife wasn't going to make...

The first two pictures and the last picture are all cars that I built. The purple, silver, and blue dusters. The silver one being mine.

Yes!!! That looks good.

Wow he got a 2.08 valve in there! I assume he cut the seat out and replaced it?

All gears will when they are too deep. An old timer told me when he would set up a Richmond gear that he would make them knock and take out just enough shim so they didn't knock anymore and that's where he left them. He wouldn't worry about the pattern at all. He said the deeper you can make a...

That's a copy of the one yukon sells. The Yukon one is like $600. I bought the one in the link I posted after leaving the place I used to work.

Probably not with out the correct puller. https://www.amazon.com/GXL-Carrier-Pinion-Bearing-Clamshell/dp/B01NAV0LUY/?tag=fabo03-20

Looking better but I would try some more shim. It's a Richmond, if it doesn't knock (click) when you turn it, then your not to deep.

You are not missing anything by not having a depth checker. You will tell more with the pattern. Hell, most of the time the etched number on the head of the pinion wasn't even close. Like impossible numbers that don't even come close to what it should be. Like .500 off.

It's not terrible to do. I did it 6 days a week for almost 15 years. Having the right tools and set-up bearings helped too.

Yes that's where you put the shim for pinion depth. The smaller shims by the outer bearing are just to set the preload on the bearings. I wouldn't worry about them even being there right now. Just leave them out and keep bumping the nut just to get your desired drag. On a Dana 60 it should be...

By old, I a lot older than 69. I'm taking course spline axles and stuff. I can tell you that my d60 has .050 under the race and is set to .005 backlash but I have a spicer gear in it. Richmond usually wants a lot of backlash especially if it's a pro gear. I would put .040 in it and check it.

More shim. Move the pinion deeper into the ring gear. From my experience, d60's usually have .035 to .055 under the race, unless it was a very old housing. Richmond's sometimes have a weird pattern but that is really on the outside of the tooth.

Looks like the pinion needs more shim. Do you remember how much shim you put under the race?
