    Ever have a $4 part ruin your night?

    I've had a few different things happen over the years, but this is a first. Car was running good, won first round and this kept me from going to round two.

    Not a good start to my season...

    Made my first pass, during shutdown I had a severe vibration in the drivetrain and broke the output shaft housing on my 727. I thought maybe I didn't get all the u joint retainers in good and a u joint moved, but that's not the case. The only time I've had this happen before is when a u joint...

    New best, the inevitable = an upgrade needed

    I haven't been on in quite awhile, last post was about going from an 850cfm to 1000cfm carb. Early in the year I made a gear change from 4.10 to 3.91 to bring trap rpm down and it did without performance loss. I was invited to a prepped TnT at our local track, I did a little tinkering and the...

    Capacity limitations of Street Hemi oil pan?

    I'm currently running an old Proform 7qt. pan that's seen some abuse over the last 25 years and I'm looking to replace it. I'm thinking about going to a St Hemi pan for more ground clearance. Would this pan be suitable, capacity wise? I'm running low 11s at around 6400 through the lights.

    Canister HP oil filters for BB ?

    I'm curious as to what brand filters some of you run, I have used K&N HP-3001 & FL1-HP. I'm also curious as to whether the Fram HP has the bad reputation that their std filters had. I have heard that the Wix HP is a good filter. I also wonder if there's actually that much difference in any of...

    When you're the only Mopar that shows at the local heads up race, but you win 11.50 index. I had been working on my throttle stop adjustments the last two races.
