The red car looks right and when it squats a bit the wheel moves back a touch which centers it in the wheel well and the tire won't get into the wheel lip at the back.

I think it looks a bit strange as well. If the springs flatten out some when you throw some weight in it the axle will shift back a bit more as well. So you'll have to watch clearance to the fenderlip.

You can make any car do almost anything. However what it will take to pull the front wheels will make the car not much of a street driver, I would leave it as-is. It is impressive pulling the front wheels on the street though. My friend Mike did it with his 68 AMX, he had a 4 speed, built...

Yes: Russ sold my friend this mess, First of all it had the wrong camshaft in it. My friend had to buy the camshaft it was supposed to have, thing always ran out of power early then this happened. I should have ripped it right down and built it from scratch but when you spend $30k at the experts...

A good business fixes their mistakes before doing new jobs. Everyone can make a mistake but it's how it is taken care of that counts. That's just the way it is. No way I would give these guys my business after seeing what you've went through. I heard their quality had improved but apparently not.

You don't see a present day NASCAR winner smiling like that after a race.

Boring cars, boring drivers, stupid rules trying to make a basketball game out of a car race. Might as well decal them up so they look like an i-phone as far as I'm concerned. They had a chance to get back to the roots when the Challenger, Mustang and Camaro were all in production along with the...

I would only run Edelbrocks of Stage V. Tim at FHO apparently just bought out Stage V.

I have alot of respect for the class racers. Lots of smarts to be competitive.

If you have a heat gun you could just take the temp off each header pipe.

One benefit of electric cars is when we start street racing them there won't be any noise which will make it a bit harder for the police to find us.

With the stroker that's a nice combo with the 3.54. Probably 2 tenths as suggested above and totally not worth the hassle for a car you drive on the street. I've driven lots of cars with 4.10s and you get tired of just driving around town with them.

I love it. You're just a few tenths behind that Camaro with the ugly scoop. I would do whatever it takes to keep it a flat hood if it were mine. Nothing worse than getting your ticket punched by a no-scoop car.

A valve spring problem would have it fluttering at high RPM rather than at idle. I think a lifter problem would be more likely at idle.

We were sometimes fairly well organized. We would shut down about 3/4 mile of road out by Tabor Mountain and block traffic with guys on each end with walkie talkies. More than once a cop car would end up getting stopped and have to wait for a run to finish, it sounds weird nowadays but back then...

I vividly remember the last time, I shifted the Hemi into high gear pulling by a guy and going by an apartment building. I remember my mind telling me that if I shifted into high I was doing 100MPH in a residential area. I finally realized how irresponsible that was and that was the end of it...

Kind of looks like an orchestrated sales strategy. Neat car but really just about all of us had legendary Hemi cars in our area, this one just got pushed to get press by the look of it. I know we had a couple of Hemi cars in our area that had a reputation as well and of course there were a few...

I'm sure you guys know this but the photo of the Toyota reminds me of something my Dad taught me 55years ago when lowbedding and tying down equipment. You anchor over the axle (or those great straps that capture the tires) and not to the body, it takes the suspension out of the equation. The...

1/8 mile? I think your combo sounds pretty good with the convertor, heads, cam and medium compression. If it was mine I would buy another center section with 4.56 or 4.88. That way you aren't compromising highway driving with the 3.23 or the 1/8 mile dig with the strip gears.

Circus. Not going to see the likes of Petty and Pearson wheel to wheel lap after lap again unfortunately.
