    Known Good head port service for Mopar?

    Well Slawko is one of the very best out there. Just wander around any NHRA pit and ask the guys in Comp who they use. He is not a chevy guy he is a GREAT cylinder head guy

    Known Good head port service for Mopar?

    Just use a GOOD cylinder head guy. Why narrow it down to a niche group who only do one style head? FWIW we use Slawko for 99% of my stuff. only thing he never sees is basic rebuild of stock stuff. We also have a guy for Stocker heads.

    Just saw that 2 more Tracks closed...

    Sac raceway has always had a non transferrable lease. Dave has not been doping well health wise and that got worse last year. So the decision was made to pull the plug on the racetrack. Why its been on a "countdown clock" for the last few years. Sonoma may as well be closed. I saw what 5 races...

    If you think you have it bad back east come pout west and try and be a racer. I am lucky enough to have a world class facility miles from my house. Unfortunately its rarely used. My next option is 300 miles away. Either to the south or the west. After those three options its 600 for the next...

    B1Mc head has a 2.400" intake valve. I have decided to stick with the originals. They are at Slawkos right now getting a tune up and new titanium valves.

    Sure thing, nothing crazy for sure. 281/292 @.050, .800/.765" on a 115 lobe. Standard firing order. An older cam I had lying around that seems to work well with a B1 deal. Its apart right now, going to throw some compression and a bit more modern cam at it now. No crazy spring eater or pressures.

    Just send it back to MSD, fairly painless and not at all expensive.

    What’s your favorite wheel on a drag car?

    Long story kinda. But to sum it up it started life as Pro Stock truck and the class was killed not soon after. So the that body was removed(7/8 scale version) and a steel body was hung in its place a 2000 Dakota with vin etc. It has spent life on the street and alot of time on the ISCA show...

    We work very hard to get the most out of a combination. This one still has room to go if I make no changes to the engine. Front shocks to eliminate bounce on landing and converter is WAY to tight. Also have another gearset for trans I may try with a 2.38 first. As well as some more tweaking on...
