Do I bring a "NANNER" sandwich as a peace offering?

You may not been around here long enough to have seen it. Eddy/Elvis would pass the hat on here every year before drag week. Half the time he didn't even have a tow rig or gas money to get there.

Well my Dyno time should help the cause.

I'm bringing the Hot Rod magazine to ask if he will autograph the article on him and his car for me.

He's made a heck of a name for himself and for Mopar!
You can tell he's doing something right by all the crap others throw at him.

I couldn't sleep much last night in anticipation of the Dyno run later today.

I wasn't asked to but I'm bringing 5 gallons of REC 90 fuel with me. It's the fuel I will be using in the car from now on.
After seeing what happened with the the fuel system in my '67 Satellite, I will avoid using alcohol blended fuel again.
Hey, it doesn't hurt being 90 octane too!
Around here, it runs about the same price as 92/93 octane from the pump and its available at several stations not too far from me.

Quicktree,
What's your opinion on running REC90 fuel with just under 11:1 on the street?

What say you?

not familiar with it. you have aluminum heads so pump gas shouldn't be an issue with the right cam/timing.

Thanks, I did read your other post under "octane"
REC90 is a non ethanol/alcohol blend fuel that most boats require so its available near most coastal and lake marina's.
It smells like old school gas too, leaning a little like what I smell at the track. I think like "purple" gas?

no I haven't talked to anyone, but I messed with a lot of 440's in the old days. the stealth head is a stock replacement and you didn't mention porting so I assumed there was none. with that cam I should be pretty close and you if you came out there in one piece after listening to elvis sing all day I give you props.

I think by the time we left I heard Ricky singing the title track to an old Beatles movie.
