Welcome from Plant City, FL.

It looks like some kind of gizmo to clean sand of off sidewalks by the beach. I cannot figure why you would need one where there is snow like that.

It was in the 90's here in Tampa yesterday. We skipped spring and jumped right into summer. :(

Can you identify where it was leaking? From the perimeter of the pump housing or from where the shaft goes through it? Having just gone through this, it could be one of a couple of things to try first to avoid a full rebuild. If it is coming from the shaft, it could be as easy as the shaft...

After the NMCA event in Orlando this weekend, a new best was set with the car during testing: 60 1.439 330 4.202 1/8 6.557 mph 103.52 1000 8.628 1/4 10.408 mph 126.03 DA for this run was 261 ft. I ran the 10.50 index and qualified with a 10.523, but got bounced first round to...

I used Lemon Squad once and they did a very thorough job documenting the car with detailed photos and evaluating the mechanics of the car. I would use them again.

Attached is my spreadsheet that shows progress and notes the changes made to the set up.

Looking back to the first time that I posted when this thread started....11.787 at 116. I have shaved off over a second. Here is a summary of the changes made to get it there: 4.88 gears changed to 4.30 looser converter installed changed from solid flat tappet cam to solid roller with more...

Good night at Thursday night Test n Tune last night in preparation for the Orlando NMCA event next week. Since last time out, a couple of more changes to the car. First, the trans now has a reverse manual valve body in it. I still need to sort that out. I much prefer the push to shift as...

I have an e-bike that I use as a pit bike at the drag strip. It is perfect for that use. It is far lighter than a gas powered scooter so it is easy to load into and out of the trailer (even if the car is already in, or just put in the bed of the truck), a single charge on the battery will last...

Yup.....I know that (now).

Between the manifold and the carbs....yes, there are gaskets. The plates shown in the pic I attached came installed on the manifold. The leak was between those plates and the manifold, not those plates and the carbs.

I had been struggling with a slowly worsening issue with my car. It has been running like crap, very hard to start and would not idle. I could keep it running at idle, but would immediately die when I put it in gear. When it would start it would rev way up to about 3,500rpm and then die. I...

In my 64 NSS car.

A couple months ago, my Father-in-law gave me his old welder. I hadn't had a need for it until this weekend when I was installing a crankcase evac system in my car. This required some welding to the header collectors. Since this would not be visible, structural, or in any way need to be...

I am considering a lift for my garage, but have not decided between a 2 post and a 4 post. I do not need the lift for storage purposes. My questions....for those that have purchased a lift, have you regretted a 4 post lift and wished you got a 2 post, and vice versa. I like the 4 post, but it...

Most of the stuff I buy comes from Summit. Occasionally, I do buy from Jegs. Never had an issue.
