Me: I'm really conflicted about the direction I want to go with the Valiant. Repair it, change tires, and try again. Go through the small block, and swap the J heads out for the W-5's on the shelf. Or switch to the Indy Maxx 512 lowdeck with Indy -1s, get the car certed, and really make some noise!! All of those decisions however, may end up being for DW 2013. I'm a realist, (OK, that's a flat out lie, a simple look at my available parts list proves that.) but with all my brothers are trying to accomplish, I'm likely to take the path of least resistance. I've already ordered new wheels for the Belvedere, and I'll be mounting M/T Drag Radials (no more switching at the track) get rid of the rediculous 2.76s and put in 3.55s, weld in a set of frame connectors, add HD leafs, and good rear shocks, upgrade to disk brakes up front, and go run trouble-free 11.60's all week in Daily Driver. Did I say "Trouble-free"??, hah!! From the mouths of Fools.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smilie_help.gif" alt="" />
So Billy, was reading this old post while waiting on the current post to get completed (seems to take longer and longer between updates. I don't think your heart is in this one like the first 2 or 3 stories) BUT I was wondering what was the issue with the Valiant that made it wobble so bad on the top end. What did you have to do to get it to run straight again? thanks and you should have been a magazine writer too. GREAT reads. Jerry
