    Shorting out MSD box

    Car ran perfect and then suddenly is began to misfire and then shut off after it was at operating temp for 20-40 minutes. I had this problem and in my situation it turned out to be the coil that was shorting out the trigger in the box after it became hot. Also I was advised by MSD that I must...

    Project Superbee new engine breaks into the 10s

    Thanks Beezee. There are no secrets other than 4 hours of dyno time and a focus on HP under the curve as opposed to the peak dyno number. A/F ratio that produces the best HP/TQ numbers was 12.4 Anyway I can help a fellow HP hunter, just ask. I have probably tried it...

    Newbie has a question?

    Nice car. Does the existing 400 engine run well currently? Does it have A/C ? Will it ever see any track time?

    Project Superbee new engine breaks into the 10s

    Not sure what 11.97 you are talking about , but the first few runs I ran it 1/8th mile checking A/F ratio making sure jets were correct. The car runs best at 12.4 A/F probably because I am using the Indy Dual plane intake and the scatter has some cylinders leaner than others.

    Project Superbee new engine breaks into the 10s

    The owner of the Vette is a close friend of mine. He ran his best time on the same evening. I have to come clean and tell you I recently had a 2007 Z06 Corvette 10.62@132 and decided to keep only one toy so I kept the Bee and away the Vette went. The manual transmission are too costly to run...

    Project Superbee new engine breaks into the 10s

    I love that car! 11.97 is phenomenal for stock. Is it an auto and is the stall converter stock as well?

    Project Superbee new engine breaks into the 10s

    Your car already is running a stout number .... curious, what are your 60 foot times? The strokers that run well on the street really need a decent suspension to get them to hook thru the 330'

    I recently upgraded the engine in my 1969 Dodge Coronet Superbee. It is a 440/493 that is a low compression , pump gas, street driven car with stock suspension. This is a video where I am tuning the car with an A/F meter going down the track and changing jets to see what works best. My son...

    Project Superbee new engine breaks into the 10s

    This is a pump gas 440/493, roller hydraulic, Eddy Heads, 3:55 gears , 3600 stall. I drive this car to the local track, run all night and drive home. I am still tuning and the car needs some Caltracks and a 950 carb. Hope to get a few more tenths shaved off in the next month or so...

    Time for a show your 66 t0 70 thread

    Thanks. Just put a fresh 493 in it. ( the original 383 nicely stashed away in a crate) B-5 Blue and yes the picture does make the color off a bit. I can sit and look a B-Bodys for hours.
