yummy

when we gonna line em up at US41?

I hope to get it going in a couple of weeks. I still have to make a fan shroud for my electric fan, and find a cool (no pun intended) place to mount the oil cooler. Not to mention the whole day it will take me to get the trans in by my self.
If the carb setup works as good as I hope it does I will be at the track early this season to lay down some times.

Looking good, Wade. What kind of times are you expecting it to run?

Good luck this year and keep us posted on your ETs.

I'll be happy if it will go mid 11's on the motor and still be driveable. It did a 12.1 @116 on street tires when it was EFI, and later I found out that the computer was fried.

It's a mismatched combo I have so I have to be realistic. If I had some good compression and a good custum cam I would be looking for mid 10's

I was out there this past weekend, were you?

Very nice WAD...

Nah I haven't made it up there yet this year.

We have had a few days up there where we've had numerous guys from MW show up. We should organize another track rental up there soon.

college boy(me) can't afford to do it, any volunteers?
