Agree 100% same results 2-3 tenths quicker great for round robin racing. Spring/fall you almost can leave your car running all day while racing, will need warm up time lol

Congrats!! It's definitely an awesome feeling to win those my brother and I have a few. days we will never forget and we are both very lucky to have our father there with us as he was the reason we started racing to begin with. Again congrats!!

We have a bunch here and I have gone up north to Canada to race some also.

Spot on with us also except we gained 3 tenths.

1972 340 steel crank, stock resized rods, .030 over, cast heads with some pocket porting only, 10:1 compression, .590 mopar cam, M-1 intake, 750 vac. Carb, 727 trans with 8" 4400 stall, 8 3/4 with 4.56's 29" tall tire. Best et 11.6's @ 115 on pump gas 93 in a 1967 barracuda the 60ft's where 1.6's

Do you have a fuel pressure gauge you can see from your seat? I have seen this before and the fuel reg. plunger would intermittently hang open and almost always happen right after the initial hit of the line. Just something to check ours was checked a few times before we where lucky it finally...

Nice win, love the wagon

Same here

But the leaf spring car needs some tunning/small changes to pick up a couple tenths. There is some time lost in the way it is now. It's not working the way it should esp. with the hp it has. would love to hear the setup. Maybe we could help without spending any or very little $$$. Just some...

I had a friend move his back 2" in a 1968 GTX. He had to alter the firewall and the steering, by the time he was done and back racing a few months he said never again. 68 GTX tubbed, narrowed danna cal-trac car. He's a Former NHRA Div.1 Champ. and been racer for years.

Everyone does there own deal with aluminum rods. I've seen them with less than 50 passes and took the pan off because of oil leak and found 5 cracked rods! Talk about luck. IMO replacing rods as maintance is a lot cheaper in the long run!! You just have to decide where your limit is!

I used a Turbo action 8" 5000-5200 You really get what you pay for in a converter. I never had any luck changing rpm on a used converter. Thats just me.

X2 Or more! Have pretty close combo, did a 3.91-4.88 gear swap didn't pick up enough to say so,

Over 19 years and not 1 problem with the mag lug nut. Just replace hose every couple years. To each there own. We tried the rubber cap on brothers car and three weeks old at the drag strip it blew open!! So never again for any of our cars.

Sounds funny but I used heater hose and a chrome shanked lug nut. I just filled some theads into the shank so the hose had some thing to grip to when clamped. May look a bit funny but much safer than any thing you can buy for it!!!

Have a drive shaft built to take a 1350 and never look back after you chage the yoke

What size header are you running? A cheap 1 5/8 header will kill that at top end also. You'll need at least 1 3/4 tube header.

Our fuel bowls on our barracuda with a 750 were very sensitive. I had to run them a touch to high. Everyone who looked at them said something but thats what worked. Just a touch not alot. Esp. in the rear!!! With or w/out the ext...

A set of 16-20" collectors will help low end at the track off the headers

33* is not much timing for a sbm I've seen some run the best at 38-39* take advantage of doing some testing even 60ft and 330ft will give you the numbers your looking for starters. I agree the converter might be to tight.

Sorry. I know they won't fit a 67 barracuda without work.

Street tires with a medium to large burnout = more tire spin off the line. Some have a happy spot but most just go around water box back up and clean tires off (spin a little) and be ready to pedal with a 408 . Have fun! Should be a blast for you!!

Some of the best times I have had with my car where the long road trips! Those are the days that stick out in my mind from the past 19 years Go have fun!!

AAA is your friend!! Made the trip from upstate NY to maple grove, PA raced the car and drove home a couple times. 360/727 with 9" conv. 4.30 gear runing 11.8's-12.0's on motor depending on air and timing. Get AAA and Drive it!!!

Keep in mind carbs are like anything eles, some work better than others. I have used two out of the box (new) carbs same cfm and one was a tenth faster no mater what we did. When you find the right combo hang on to it. I do agree your lacking in cfm.

I agree with the aftermarket heads I have a 67 cuda with 340 mp .557 solid cam j heads and some bowl port work. best et has been 11.7's pretty much your combo and the car works great. I could write a page here on whats been done. Should have done w-2 or edelbrock heads was my only mistake!!! I...

Congrats to you guys. It's great to hear bout the door cars sending the diggers home...

The only thing I could stress is if at any point the car feels uncontrable or even starts to sway around LIFT!!! I don't mean to be rude but I have grew up at the drag strip and have seen so many people think they can drive through it and really you cant. Next thing they are in the grass,wall or...

Anyone who is smart enoungh to take it to the track instead of the streets should get that paper signed. good luck!!

Ran 32-46 up front depending on what track I was at and 9 in the rear.
