Thanks, that's it! I haven't seen it in 2 years, but I did have it printed out at home. I'm only about hour from the Falls boarder and been to Pat's shop, ProCars when he had it a few times.

People sometimes don't look at "THE TOTAL PACKAGE", and therefore HURT performance as noted in in there when Mike switched to Merlin heads and Team G intake, PLUS going up a point in compression, THE CAR SLOWED DOWN A 2 TENTHS AND 2 MPH. That's why when we were putting my motor together, my guy recommend the SMALL 660 roller over the typical BBc 714 I had that everyone was using.

Yes, technology changed with the years. In the late sixteys if you had car that ran in the 12S. You had a good car. But today, your grand mother wouldn;t drive that car. I;m not braging in any way. But I run a full unlitened body car. 3350 lb. no driver. All motor, foot brake, and I;m doing a 10:31 Et at 133 MPH. And that;s lunching the car at 1,800 RPM;s. Thanks The Dutchman

Sounds like you got that car dialed in Professor. And, you do not hurt any parts doing it.

Island Dragway the nicest drag strip east of the Mississippi in the 60's/70's I guess.
I remember when that place was the place to go. They had the best Stock/SuperStock racing around. Jersey, Pa. NY and even some Conn. racers.

Good luck at the Beaver Strip.
