Yep I agree there Sam. YEARS ago we ran a IHRA B/D. NEVER worked on it and only ususally clean and fuel and tire pressure. For a car that was running 7.60's with a Cleveland Ford too. Man I miss those days, LOL

I have read about 70% of this thread. I just didn't want to see BBBenny just start dropping $$$$$ that he doesn't need too. His car runs well, just all too ofter people will start to say "you need this or that" just to line there own pockets, that's all.

Look at this link:

This should help explain and give an insight into times and $$$ spent. BTW that is a very old artical. I've owned that 427 for 5 years now myself. With todays technology, BOTH motors will run fast and into the 9's I believe. And these are both running DOT street tires and footbraking WITH the aid of a roller cam also.

Here;s the update. I raced at Beaver Springs Dragway today. It was a hot day, but thats racing, in the summer. I won two rounds.Going to the third round, the weather got bad. They called the race, so every one left gets the payout. The car was running a 10;75 127 MPH. Bad air day. But we won some money!!! The Dutchman [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif[/img]
