Some pics of the new setup

You and me both. Set in the seat tonight and made some 4 sec passes already! :D
Its coming together nice it has been a job rewiring the car this time. There was a lot of stuff in the car from over the years, but the good thing it is much simpler now and loosed same weight too.


Just remembering a good test session at the "farm"

That's what I'm talking about. Did Dan build the crossover? I like the way it's support is built to the frame rails. Car is looking real nice and I can't wait to see it in ATL ;)
 
updated pics

Dusty yes Dan built the cross over along with the headers. I have almost every thing I can do done, but putting in the trans. and making the trans. lines. That is what I'm going to work on this week. So by weeks end I may be look'n a carb. motor to put in and make some laps!! Boy I am ready to twist this thing bad!!! Not looking good for the races this month, I really hate missing the "Rock" because I'm always running for the win there in front of the home crowd. Wish I could be in Huntsville this weekend, Dusty go kick some ass there for me as well.
Over and out
Richie

Ummmm Wow, that is totally sick!
What size rim are you using in the back?
Those tires loo bigger than our Ws on a 10inch.
 
they look bigger because you need your W'S on 14 inch I have 12 inch and some use 13 inch rear wheels.
 
Holy $hit that looks good. Wish you were coming to Huntsville or ATL. You got some hours in the polishing. We'll meet up sooner or later.

We'll give it a shot this weekend although it's a typical George Howard "all run" race. Looks like a Limited Street car with 345/60's radials could run if he wants. Practically no rules. I really don't care though since it's so close to the house. I'll enter and take a shot at whoever's in the other lane. I came in for a break, been changing plugs and gettin it ready to be in the trailer Wednesday. Back to work...

I am working. Been getting schooled up on my AFCO shock adjustment so I make sure to put the power down this weekend. They are still set where I baselined them from the start....In the middle of the adjustment on both compression and rebound. It's going .30's if I get it to hook. Remember I have at least 2 more degrees of timing and 4# of boost to go....

Can you give me a 1.35 this weekend?
