I saw an ad for a somewhat rusty looking Chrysler 400 block near me yesterday so I went to look at it. Bores measured roughly 4.338 with a pair of calipers in a bore with a decent amount of “surface rust”, so std bore is my thought. There was no issues in the bores other than the surface rust...

Need a part number for the smaller pinion bearing, at the spline section of the gear, for a 742-case 8-3/4. Search as I may, I can’t seem to find a P#. Thanks-

Been a while since I’ve posted here at FBBO, but I’m in need of some help…. a buddy of mine has a gorgeous 65 B-Post street/strip HotRod. Pretty standard 440/727 setup. last year he had a shop replace the converter. When he got it back, the shifter (cable B&M unit) wasn’t adjusted properly...

a week ago we had a Friday - Saturday pair of races at Pacific Raceway. 1st hit Friday I accidentally left with the shifter in 2 after the burnout. Just as I realized what I had done and backed out of the throttle, a bad sound erupted and I quickly shut it down. Since I had made the driver...

I‘m happy to report that I‘ve decided on a path for a refresh of the LemonWedge bullet that will hopefully take place this coming off-season. This will be a budget friendly deal, but should still yield some strong results. The current 452” 400 will be stroked to 471 (4.382 x 3.915). Ill be...

I entered two classes today, Pro & SuperPro. Got whacked by a young gun in round 2 of Pro, but was able to gather up the pieces and string together 6 rounds in SuperPro! Wading into the deep waters of 7 second, 160+ mph dragsters loaded with delay boxes, starting line enhancers, and throttle...

Can someone explain to me how a rear wheel drive Chevy cobalt with a small block or LS combo has a home in NHRA superstock, but a 451-powered Dodge or Plymouth B-Body does not?

Ive been pretty busy and staying away from media recently, but I wanted to share my day from a couple of weeks ago. A good buddy and I had a great day at the GoodGuys Northwest Drags. Mike is a friend that has an absolutely SICK ‘69 Camaro. This thing is set up! I call it “The Unfair...

I have a race this coming Saturday, and the weather report says 100*. What do you guys do or use to prepare, stay cool, stay hydrated, and keep the car running correctly in severe conditions?

We had a great day at Pacific Raceways this past weekend! Things didn’t start too well as my lights were all over the place in my (2) time runs. I swapped sides from .050 red to .064 green, and started wondering about my new heart meds and how they may be effecting me. But I was able to stay...

Hi all. Mods please leave this here as even though it’s not directly race related, I’m intending to speak to my compadres that hang out here. I had a horrible day on Monday, one I’m still not sure I believe. Woke up at midnight with what I thought was indigestion. It quickly became horribly...

I was at the track today hanging with a buddy between rounds when the owner of our race series title sponsor came and found me. Rob Gillette is the owner of A-Street Automotive, a full service auto repair shop in Auburn WA. They are a new sponsor for our ET series this year, and Rob has been...

This car is for sale in Utah currently. A buddy of mine is interested, but the current owner knows nearly nothing about the car. It apparently came from Kentucky. Looking for legitimate specs or info. on the build in any way. Thanks for any help you can offer.

I’ve set up a few gear sets over the years. I usually just start with .090 shim behind the pinion, and start with trial and error from there. I have a rheemed out pinion bearing to make things easier, and this time around I decided to grab this little Ratech pinion depth tool. So far all...

Chrysler 8-3/4” 742 case 4.10 gear set. Motive Gear brand. Used in good condition; less than 1000 miles on it. Was set up with .009 backlash & shows a good contact pattern. Was nice & quiet. Selling with Pinion bearing set up on .020 shim. May or may not be right for your case. $125 plus...

NEVER AGAIN!!!!! I normally do business with Summit. I found some items at Jegs that I liked, so I figured I’d check them out, and threw an order their way. OMG! One order turned into 5 different shipments, three back orders. Nothing has arrived yet (ordered 3 days ago). Tracking says...

In another thread, One of our members suggested we start a thread about good race-trailer mods / additions. I thought it was a great Idea, so here we go.... what have you done or seen someone else do that made sense?
