Neat looking set up here to add in some dry ice and cool down the fuel!!! What a great enhancement from back in the day I'm sure it got me at least a tenth in ET and maybe even more . Hmmm maybe I should put it on my car now Russ 7533132-m_IMG_0217.jpg (438 downloads)

Yes - adjust valve clearances, but worn rockers had nothing to do with the use of this tool. They had sets for most OHV engines (4 - 6 - 8) with factory adjustable rockers. I still have mine for the Y-Block Ford engines. Precision Measurement Supply has a modern version (which I also own), as I was never very good with feeler gauges!! 68 RR 528" INDY MAXX 07 2500 CTD Southwest International Raceway - IHRA - Tucson, AZ

If nothing else it made a great place to keep a can of Pepsi cold. Guys freaked out first time I pulled into staging and lifted a can out. Put a cool can back on my 63 this summer. Because its a street car and in the 100 degree hot and humid heat I had some problems with this 92 pump fuel boiling a little after a hot soak. So if I went for a long cruise in the 95 to 110 degree humid days I would put an ice pack in the cool can and it defenitly helped. If it was a long ride to a show I would throw an extra ice pack in the cooler in the trunk for the ride home. Ron
