    Gearing question

    I am in St. Louis, MO. The car pulls pretty hard all the way down the track, I don't think it's leaning out. The plugs don't show a lean condition. I don't know what the car weighs, I would be guessing. It weighs what a stock dart does only with a big block. My cooling problems are on the...

    Gearing question

    70dartman, Does this 440 car your driving have any cooling issues? I seem to fight my car to keep it cool. I have a aluminum 2 row radiator with dual 11" electric fans from Be cool. 180 degree thermostat, hi-flow water pump. I almost wonder if the coolant isn't moving too fast thru the radiator?

    Gearing question

    I thought the same thing about the slip. It would seem the tranny is letting go. I do need to pull the motor and get the block decked to get the CR up to 10:1, but don't see that happening until winter at the earliest. (I bought the car this way, I would've done it from the get-go.) I appreciate...

    Gearing question

    Here's the rundown on the evolution of my car. 1st trip to the track: street tires that are 27" tall, 4.56 gears. 60' was 1.88, 1/4 mile was 112mph and 12.8 seconds. I spun pretty bad, was on 6400 rpm crossing line. 2nd trip: I bought street slicks that measure .75" shorter than street...
