Re: New Pure Stock car added to the team
Thanks guys! It might get a few passes on the original engine. We have another engine for it. It was kinda nice knowing a car is ready to race next year in NOV!! Oh well...
We are getting a photo shoot done on the car in the near future. More pix to come.

Re: New Pure Stock car added to the team
A real problem with the hemis was the oiling. The pump can empty the contents of the oil pan into the valve covers a lot faster than the single drain back holes in the back of the head can feed the oil back down to the pan. (And under acceleration the only drainbacks available will be the rear drain holes). Also the 66-69 pans held at least a quart less oil than the 70-71 pans. If you have to go with a stock pan I'd upgrade to the 70-71 style and get a lower volume pump.

There are also some oiling upgrades that were created by the old racers when these cars were new that should be considered. I may have a copy of them saved. If you are interested I will look for them.
