Well the car works... Took it to Thompson's Gasser Reunion (ok... we're sort of an Extreme Gasser... right? :shock: ) for some test passes last weekend. Set the blower up at a whopping 11% over. First pass ran an 5.24 1/8 with a 1.14 60' leaving in high gear and blubbering it's way down the track on...
Wow and BP's coming over too! You guys may have to introduce me to him again, it's been a while :lol: Wheelz - Oldest crew chief may be around, but he's talking about going back to PA to hang out with some of his college gang for the weekend. Second oldest crew chief has to work on Sunday. That leav...
We decided not to run the car - too much going on at that event to be running shakedown passes. But I'll be there, probably with the youngest crew chief. We'll look for you Wheelz - I'm assuming you'll be around that gold Mustang somewhere.
Since I don't have a Prefect replacement yet I'm going to be helping out on Steve Duber's new (to him) 41 Willys. smaller.jpg It's a McAmis chassis with a 496 Brad-headed hemi.

The hemi's gone Bill - all I have left that's hemi is a MSD distributor and a set of header adapters to adapter it up to the dyno headers on the late Billy William's dyno. I've got about 75% of the peices to put together the small block - iron eagle raised cam block, 15 degree spread port heads, 3-7...
sold! to a fellow from the Boston area. I watched it pull out on an open trailer this evening - would like to see some of the reactions he's going to get out there on road with it on the open trailer 8) He plans on putting a naturally aspirated small or big block in it and running ~10's, which will ...
After much consternation, thought, and otherwise mind-numbing activity, I've decided not to put the Prefect back together this year. I'm going to put the roller up for sale. I'm not quitting and walking away from the sport, just not sure that I want to continue on with this car. So if you know anyon...
