Impressive! I see that you have reduced the rear end rotation a bunch from where it was:

Ha ha Brian I was talking about the 4 link / shock setup. I am happy with the engine and converter performance.

Timing is at 35*, carb is 96 squared...maybe still lean in good air. Shift made @ 7450 through the traps at the same. 2 step at 5k converter flashes to 6k.

Never messed with air bleeds but thinking that may be the next step now that the carb is up to 96's from 92's?

Anyone know the difference in NGK 7405's that I'm running vs. NGK 4091's? What about heat ranges...I'm running 9's now.

When are you bringing it to sea level?



Got me we have a busy summer, Plan to go to the Woodburn Mopar Nats, but the DA isn't always great that weekend.




Double header at Pacific May 17th-18th would be a good opportunity.




I just heard the weather forecast it is going to be hot the next few days and then RAIN for the weekend.

I would love to see your car run here.

How often do they run at Renegade? I have never been there.

Usually every other weekend. You should come the 24th-25th of this month for a double header feature race. They pay $500 to win Super Pro. We had 28 cars last weeknd and they said if there is 32 or more they'll bump it up $750.

I would love to be there for that, but, as usual life interferes with fun I have to finish putting my '87 back together and wiring it to pull the cargo trailer. I have set myself a goal that the truck and trailer will be running and picking up everything in the club storage unit on May 31st for the car show on June 1st. Oh and BTW, I am looking at a (new to me) house 51 miles south of us on Saturday the 17th and our existing house goes on the market June 1st, too. I will probably be a little too busy to play at anything in June

But you go ahead without me
