most blower surge can be handled by cracking the butterfly a little to up the idle. I'm not real sure the big fascination with blower surge, we don't have it when nitro is in the tank.

the eco boosts are pretty fun, I just upgraded a turbo on one in the shop this week. waiting on an intercooler and I can button it up. It will prob max the direct injection since there is not really any options to put more fuel in the motor unless you run a second set of injectors.

the 3v' has potential. Just watch out for high mileage ones they have cam phaser issues but those are mostly in trucks. If they start making noise replace, if it brakes there will be valves crashing into pistons.

was there not anything at Late Model Restoration

Car is now back in my shop and I have ordered a bunch of parts but some of the custom stuff has been slow to come in like shifter, switch panels, etc. I got to remount the steering rack and add a few more tabs and on to body work. This car is rough and going to require alot of work. headlight...

so the chrome is mounted on studs like the windshield, the only chrome I have dealt with is in the 67-72 trucks and you got to order special rubber because the chrome actually goes into a grove in the rubber. I have not cut then rear window out yet but will this week. I will not be using any...

when i'm putting my race car back together i'm going to use new rear window weatherstrip, does the seals bought today accept the chrome. The Scott drake and the Chinese both do not designate weather they do or do not accept the chrome. my car is  fastback.

great for posting pictures, glad your track opened back up they are falling like flies around the country.

some sheet metal work, still need to build battery trays and weld on a bunch of tabs for various items as I mock up all the stuff in the car.

something that wide the frame rails will need to be moved.

yes you can keep a lot of the original sheet metal. how big of a tire are you going to run? You could just do a mini tub and keep a smaller tire and leave the frame rails alone. That kit looks like it attaches to the original frame rails. If you want to do a true back half it will be much easier...

yes very similar build

this is actually the motor out of my mach 1 that I put in this car so i would have something to race while the 72 is down

Thanks guys, should have some more pictures in the next few weeks

been awile but have been slowly working on the car.

it makes it a lot easier to do all the frame and bar work with no floor pans and get to get rid of a little weight.

Who has experience with the halo headlights that are offered by CJ pony parts. I'm wanting to know how bright are the halos at full brightness, do they put off enough to see a little. I'm looking to put a set on my drag car and I really don't want to run the h4 bulbs. [/align]

frame rails are going in, hope to have some suspension back under it next week.

I actually have a set that I'm going to try and convert to driving lights for my drag car since it does not have headlights. I will prob get to it later this summer. I'm thinking that an led bulb might be a better choice than a halogen because of the heat load that might be generated in the...

tore the car apart, going back with better stuff.
