Very nice!

The "heat" is Bob and yourself. On your way out please gather up Bob and close the door behind you. Thanks.

Nobody made me the police but he called my car tackey and bragged about his in the middle of my unrelated post. He was obviously looking for a response with a statement like that. He got one.

Your car looks great. Do the fronts ever rub? Cheers

Hey, in this thread, we were having an intelligent conversation about wheel and tire combinations. Perhaps you and your opinion can wait outside until we're done. Thanks.

Regarding the QF 450's. It's no 440 Dodge but I have them on a little 327 with an old school 280 Isky Mega (108lsa / choppy idle / 10.5" vacuum) and it is very responsive and no tip-in stumble. That's running a straight linkage and a 25 pound flywheel on it. Great carbs. Edit; pn# SL-450-VSTRF...

Haha... I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that nobody on this planet would select a cam based on LSA alone! My overlap numbers are from the .050 like the desk dyno does when you enter the specs. Using advertised duration numbers, the Howards cam is 71 degrees, "4" on DV's chart. Hughes...

100% on that. No cranky gramma cams! The 108 LSA it is so... for 6000 rpm, the Hughes and Howards are there. 23/24 overlap should sound nice. Thank for the input!

I have no idea what the cam is that's in it now. Any guesses?

Howards - 238/242 .555/.562 @ 108 Hughes - 236/242 .546/.562 @ 108 Lunati - 238/242 .513/.533 @ 110 Comp - 241/247 .545/.545 @ 110 We haven't used a lot of Comp cams lately... only a couple 268's in some Chevys. They've been great so I'd try one. Those numbers are similar. More...

I'm selecting a cam and thinking these hydraulic flat tappet units are in the range. The car is basically a Saturday night special... but we do some highway road trips too. I don't care if I give up some low end for a better sound and top end! I'd like to hear your experience driving with...

My 70 has a 440 833 8.75; I had 4.10's in it with 27" tires. It was great banging through the gears around town but on the highway it was buzzing up around 3300 rpm... no good in my books. We planned a group road trip so we swapped the 4.10's out for 3.23's and 28" tires. As expected the car was...

Yes I like 5 spokes... both old school and new. When did those Daisy mags get so expensive... holy moly! I had a set on my old daily driver van... that I kept them when I sold it (but they're 5 on 5 bp).

Lol that's a lot of stress. I've had good luck with mine but I know there's many other better tires out there. Cheers

5 spokes... I'll look them up too
