Getting Ready for the Dover Reunion..

[WILMASBOYL78]

Sammy...I ran the car last year at the Dover Reunion...but, with only street radials it was tough to get out of the hole. I will avoid the water this year...and try to feather it a little and see how we do. The car has all new brakes, shocks, control arm bushings, lower ball joints, sway bar links, etc...the tranny cooler lines and the old motor/tranny mouunts concerned me, so that is why they are being replaced/repaired. I will put in a fresh set of plugs..check the "Eric prepared" 850 Holley, adjust dwell/timing as needed and top of the tank with some 100 octane go juice. Hopefully it won't rain...

we will wait for the updates! Hey, is there a motor in that car or is there a jack under it? Thats it, you must be uncorking the headers.

[WILMASBOYL78]

Yes...there are 402 cubic inches of Chevy power [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Not sure about the open headers...perhaps..lot of work for a few runs down the 1320.

wilma </div></div>got to uncork the tubes Tom. Unbolt them and let them hang and bolt the collector that is hanging to a hole on the header. It will stay tight and not drag the ground. A 10 minute deal. Do it! Better yet, have Karen do it!

Well Sammy...put a lot of work in and we got rained out [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

It was sunny this morning when I loaded up the car...got to the track...quick thru the tech check...unloaded and it started to rain. So they had about a 15 minute delay...got in staging lane and it started to rain again and then it poured!!

They closed the track...loaded back up and drove home...raining so hard it was starting to flood the back roads.

Oh well....maybe next time [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif[/img]
