    First launch in new big block cuda - video

    The weather finally came around, and gave us a few hours to run the car before rain showed back up. Was able to run the car three times. First two were shake down runs that I shut it down half track. The entire car is new and I had no idea what gremlins lie in waiting. The only video the kid was...

    Pinion Angle? Do I have this right before I cut it up?

    The previous owner installed SS springs on my '67 barracuda. I just rebuilt the 8 3/4 and decided to check the pinion angle as it didn't look right. I haven't driven it down the road more then a 1/4 mile as I've been busy doing other repairs. So I don't know if it has any vibration at speed...

    Help identify this axle in my 8 3/4" drag car

    These were in the car when I bought it. After hours of searching online, I haven't had any luck. Best I can tell they are "Moser Engineering", but after that I'm clueless....

    505 stroker fresh off the dyno - Power seems low? Thoughs?

    So there's the question. This is the first stroker build for me. After comparing notes with very similar builds it seems to be missing 50-75 horse easy. Even the owner of the engine shop/dyno felt it was lacking greatly. It fired right up and break-in was flawless, runs smooth after ten pulls...

    If you just couldn't do oil mods, what's an alternative?

    So, putting together a bracket car, nothing super serious competitive wise, just to expose my three young teens to the racing culture and have fun getting back into the sport after being out for a long time. Building a 440/512 stroker, 650hp, 10.6 comp, solid flat tappet, planning on keeping the...

    Trick flow QC gone right down the crapper? Pics

    Ordered a set of 240's for a stroker build. I couldn't believe how beat up these heads were. The double boxing they were shipped in were spotless, so definitely not the shipper. Not only were both deck surfaces scratched to hell, but the one head was actually cracked! You could see with a...

    512 cam selection, what do you think of these options.

    I appreciate any advice you guys can give. I've been on the phone with Comp, Howards and Hughes. I've been surprised by the variation of their picks. But in picking their brains I've come to better understand it all, and refined all the choices. One thing I've heard a few times by people who...

    Why use a passenger side water pump housing?

    Good morning, As I assemble my plan for a strip 440 in my '67 Barracuda, I was reading up on the vast array of water pump housings and have seen a lot of mention of the passenger side lower radiator hose hook up. Is this for clearance issues? Radiator selection? Seems like there has been a...
