    Spark, Fuel, No start

    The only other issue would be compression. But even if compression is low it should pop off briefly..

    Spark, Fuel, No start

    Crank sensor ok? Also, there is a 30 amp fuse just above a 20 amp for the acc. In the fuse panel. I always mess up the letters but it is on the upper left of the panel, something like CCCI or something. Check that fuse.

    Kirbans Performance

    It’s just sad.. I’m wondering if his awareness has just suffered due to age and he is getting taken advantage of or it was all about the almighty dollar.. He and Christina don’t seem to be the same caliber as the castlebendecos… I guess I will just set back and observe.

    gbodyparts avoid at all costs

    Just as we were discussing this, look what hit my email. This doesn’t appear to be human error or lack of customer service. This appears to be a software or automated database issues. So I told you about Gbodyparts helping me meet the deadline of the GS Nats which happened at the first of the...

    gbodyparts avoid at all costs

    When you call ask for Mike. He went well above and beyond to help me run at the Nats this year. Relationship building has helped me with vendors over the years but I can understand your frustration with your parts orders for sure. Maybe talk to Brian directly and let him make things right for...

    GN mechanic in Memphis area

    Speaking of hard to find people and parts 😄 Chuck.. Do you know where to find any main caps for a 153 4.1 stage 2 block? There is a 153 casting on center block for sale out there but no main caps with it. I figure worst case is get the original specs and have some machined but there has to be a...

    GN mechanic in Memphis area

    I know of one but if you can get an appointment with him, then maybe you could put a good word in to get me an appointment as well… I’m currently waiting in line.. He stays slammed with builds. Chris Hogeland. Twisted 6 Racing. He’s very good at making big power but very busy.

    Cam question for the group

    I appreciate all the folks that are offering up recipes for success. I do absorb everything folks offer so I don’t repeat their mistakes and I attempt to replicate their formulas for success. Not just with cars or engines either. Life experiences and lessons learned information/war stories are...

    Cam question for the group

    Yeah will be doing some weight reduction but also adding performance. My car has an 8.5 cage so I figure that is where the extra weight is coming from. I can also go with an in trunk tank and get rid of the factory tank but that limits some classes in the Nats and that is the only event I am...

    Cam question for the group

    Yeah at peer tech my car was 3780#. I’m not going to find 340 # worth of stuff to cut off of the car but I agree, rotating weight is a hp killer. From the build sheet, the original builder did a great job with quality parts and tolerances on the build. I think what I have in mind for it will...
