Just thought i'd throw my first "what i did racing this weekend" out there.....Saturday dad and i fired the ole 62 up for the firs ttime after the freshenup and with the new(well new to me anyway) dry sump setup.all went well.....I was a little worried i might have some issues with the dry sump stuff as it was all used stuff i pieced together over the winter..the pump looked excellent inside .but I was still nervous!!.no worries we primed it with dads trusty 1960's model B&D drill it had 90 pounds of oil pressure with the drill!!......we fired it checked for elaks, checked the oil tank all was well.had 95 pounds of Oil pressure and it pegged the guage when ya wacked the throttle at 100 psi.so we backed that off it now has 80-85 .should be fine, i also have upped the HP on the nitrous to 400(from 300), and fattened the main jet up a little.......the car sounds great.....though in my small shop it is a little overwhelming!!......now all i gotta do is put the trans blanket back on, relash the valves, and put the diaper on we are also gonna redo the front suspension a little to get the camber better and put longer wheelie bars on it.we are gonna rob the ones off the stude (so we have an excuse to build trick ones for that).now it was 67 here sunday and the snow melted ..but tday it is COLD again so I am chomping at the bit to get out there and run the thing......
