    Hey,can anyone identify this shiny module?Whilst upside down under my'70 Dart GT dash with my back broke I saw this sitting loose on the inside dash bottom lip.I can see no female plugs on any wiring.It says "ign",guessing that means ignition.One would think it should be attached.Any clues?

    Yes I think so as I've been asking around and the forum feedback is positive..He will set it up to flash to 3600 and promises less trap rpm improving my et.Also included is all the correct bolts.You know that TCI are too cheap to include the vert bolts (with that converter)and they were an odd...

    I agree .I would have thought i'd get around 3-3200 ft. braking it as advertised.No sense doing much else except quarters and paint(in my garage) this winter,until I get a better converter.

    I've been watching this show since the very first season faithfully but tonights show made me upset enough to turn it off.Guess all the fame has really gotten to those Oklahoma boys as they have become a bunch of lads that now would not even care to say hello to.Especially "Chief".This guy has...

    Good morning Raymond.As stated the pistons are below deck 0.20 and I believe the 340 eddies are a 65 cc.Cranking compression is 180.That I would think can be related to a big cam and pistons down the hole. Not sure about the 28?

    Yes a smaller converter would be nice but with 3000 stall and 4'10s now its at it's edge as I drive it just about everyday.Sometimes for miles.I will back it down to 34 and try that.Wish i had more track time but winter is a comin' and thats it for this year.

    The back of the leafs are not clamped.The slapper bars do work.There is no real room for a pinion snubber.I mini tubbed the back.With a 275 in there and the front bracket in the middle hole there is about 4 " room.I can't justify $ Cal Tracs yet.Not up north with our exchange rate.Maybe next...

    Thanks for the reply.When I built the Chev 383 I used a similar solid cam-lift and duration with 10-1 compression.Apples to oranges again.The chamber design of the Vic .JR heads sure liked a lot of advance.It picked up big at 40 degrees and met another racer that ran 45 total with those heads.
