man that looks nice mike i know its a tube car strut frt end four link what about the engine trans stall on the vert rear gears



Actually its a ladder bar... remember I cant go faster
than 10.0 now days.... but its a 418ci with a 518 od
with a 5000 stall T/A conv with a 9" rear with 4.10
gears and a 28" ET street radial tire... pretty simple
build but it took a lot longer than I figured... just
as MoparBilly stated in his Drag Week post... this
has taken mch more time than my race car.. dont ask
me why.. I dont know.... granted when I built the
race car I was working and MAYBE I had a few more
bucks to throw at it... now I'm retired and have to
watch that a bit more.... this is a totally new car
from the ground up... and this one I had a lot more
body work to do.... so now the testing should start
within a couple of weeks... on the dyno the engine
made 550hp and 520tq... if my weights are right at
2800-2900 lbs thats more than enough to put it sub
10.0 but for DW I'll put a throttle stop on it to run
10.80s
