Yep...just the way I like it.
You should have that method name patented. :) "I used FishnRace's pinch off a loaf program and my track times have improved dramatically". I...
good point on the 1/8 race. I personally liked the 1/4, because it showed the difference in cars. Some cars got off the line quicker but ran out...
Hey krelboyne, Man, the manifolds are butt f-ugly, but they don't leak and they do the job. A straight tube with 3 inlets, downpipe bunged for...
I've never run on a 1/8 track...what's it like? Does it still have the adrenaline rush that a 1/4 has? I know a lot of tracks are going 1/8 for...
good advice on the mrs. Get it running, let those turbos throw her in the backseat and we'll see. Heck, mine doesn't like old-school cars but...
mounts have to be fab'd. stock 302 upper mounts were welded to the engine plates (ugly), but the frame mounts were un-modified.
Hey Clint, Actually, I did a lot of research on the whole s/c vs turbo argument and decided to go turbo. Although superchargers are more...

I'll have to read up on that. I read somewhere that only the pistons/rods are forged and the crank is cast, but I could have been mis-informed....

Ok...my opinion may be biased, but I think most of us are missing an important point. First, there would be a gain in power/weight ratio as the...
You reminded me of when I was a mechanic's apprentice at a motorcycle shop. There was a group of guys who raced GXSR 750s and were obsessed with...
The driver side shock tower is a deal-killer, I second that sentiment. I'm putting a n/a 3.8 in one and threw a s/c upper manifold on there just...
thanks for all the help guys, got it out. Love you guys...I dont know how I managed to restore cars before message boards came along.
Hello all, Finally got a little time to work on the Comet since the Army has been moving us all over the freakin' place. Finished building the...
Hello again, all. Working on my 71 comet with the EFI 3.8 and I'm replacing the harness so I need to get inside my dash. Unfortunately, my...
