    LemonWedge 727 build

    Figured I’d chronicle this build here. Hopefully a good opportunity to discuss what goes into a decent 727 build, share and learn some tips, and discuss others builds as well. I could also probably use some help here & there. I’ve been a footbrake guy for years. And the 727 in the yellow car...

    LemonWedge doesn’t need no stinking CHANGES! And HEMI goodness at TnT season opener.

    Got the season started tonight with a quick Wednesday night TnT session, and it was an interesting one. I had the feeling at the end of last year the the car was running just a little on the lean side. Added an AFR guage over the off season, but the Bosch sensor went out after only a minute or...

    Scored an interesting std bore 400 block

    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...

    Season interrupted - breakage scare in the new 470.

    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...

    LemonWedge 470 build thread

    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...
