WOW 500s. Are they readily available now? At PRI I saw several sets that were empty on the inside and the wait was..........

Thanks, I will go double check my paperwork.

Thanks for the reply Dan. I was told the block had 50 laps on it. it only took .003 to clean up the block and the crank was perfect so that sounds about right. The information gives me some piece of mind. Compared to what i usually fool with this is a small street engine... Its all...

I am about to start my stage 2 build. It is a converted Wegner Busch engine. It has a Kellogg crank in it. Anyone know about the durability of these crankshafts? Has anyone run one? I talked to Kellogg at PRI and imagine this, no one has been at the company since the mid 80s. The one man...

Donnie those were my thoughts exactly. How are you saving money by blowing a mans engine up. We have been 4.78 at 160 in a 3200# car that was wet sump. But we also had 3 cranks for the poor little engine. The owner wanted to race and didn't have time to convert it. Instead we just kept the...

Class rules - That makes alot of sense. If the powers at large will alow an external wet pump why not allow an external dry sump. I don't guess I will get to do any class racing with my street car because with what it costs to build this stage 2 project it is deffinately going to have a dry...

Is there a reason people don't run the dry sump set up?

Donthats just the thing, I amnot interestedenough to document the required information. 2 were 632" ford the other that I can remember was a 434" Ford all twinn turbo on methanol. The one I can that happened the latest and I can rember the most about broke an intake rocker arm (completely) and...

I am definately not taking shots at you or your expertise. All of us have experienced things others have not. I am obviously not as technical as you but I do make cars go fast. Heck I would like to sit down and talk to you sometimes about methanol on one of these motors as i am considering...

I think we are getting a little hung up on theory instead of facts. I have seen and alcohol motor with a broken INTAKE rocker arm have over 400* EGT. Does that not prove that we can increase EGT without the intro of fuel or oxygen through the intake valve. This is not an isolated incident as I...

If you changed your name to Lynch you would be working at Proline and would do your own machine work. I guess eveyone makes mistakes but eveything that they have done for us has been top notch.

You have one of the best turbo engine shops in your back door. Give Eric @ ProLine a call. He and Steve just got my stage 2 project back to me in a very timely and professional manner. If you don't know who they are well...

I have a complete arp bolt kit for a stage 1 never used never open. I will look it up tonight.

Its Wegner and they used to do alot of BGN engins. I just finished converting their same engine to a turbo. Proline did the work and said the previous work was the nicest they had seen on one of the S2s. Good luck with the sale.

PTC has a brand new converter for the buicks that is kick ars.
