Mine are 28's

Here is my 64 Hooptie

A blast cabinet will require a large amount of air. The larger the cabinet the higher the demand. IMO you are going to want as large a tank as you can afford or have space for, or a screw compressor that can keep up and not make you go deaf while doing so

I am curious as to why it matters where it idles? AS long as its happy does it matter what the RPM is? Just curious or perhaps I missed the why

As stated they are Moser axles

Can only speak for myself and over all these years and car(127)I have only had three that did not get completed by me. One of those has still never been completed.

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

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.

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...

Hmmmmmmm....A body guys :)

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.

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...
