You've got a passenger side tail light out! Hehe...

Nice drag setup! What are you running for a motor/trans/rear setup/rear gear? I'll have to wait for audio until I get home from work. Bad enough that I watched the vids here, LOL.

Default RE: My car...

haha! the garage is about 2.5 car lengths long..and yes, it almost ran out of space...

the motor is a 1969 340, 30 over, but with below deck pistons...so im about 9 to 1...a little under, actually...obviously even with a low compression engine, it is built quite a bit. i have an 800 proform race carb, eledbrock air gap intake, mopar 528/284 cam, flowtech headers, ported and polished 360 heads with 188/167 valves, fully stock rods and crank. msd 6a ignition, built mopar 727 trans, manual valve body, 4000 stall (new)...8.75 mopar rear diff with richmond 4.56 gears running through a spool (all new).

with the 3000 stall and 4.10 gears with regular posi rearend the car ran 12.60s...it also had more weight then...about 200lbs has been removed..also, shortly after running in the 12.60s, the top end of the motor broke...a few pushrods, some valve springs, but nothing dropped..so it has a new chain, new springs, new pushrods, and we had been having a problem with the numbers 1 and 3 cylinders running lean, which has been fixed...also when putting it back together my dad (who has the car until i have somewhere to put it, and at 68 years old, hes having alot of fun with it, and getting in trouble!) noticed that the distributor gear on the cam was bad, and that the car wasnt running in proper timing..so that is also fixed..the car sounds MUCH more crisp...the engine was refreshed last year when i ran it at norwalk, with the 3000 stall and 4.10 gears, and when i staged, i brought the rpms up and the tranny came apart at the seams..[:@] hence the freshly rebuilt trans, and the 4.56 gears were a deal, so in they went!

so it will be interesting to see what it does with the new stuff, the properly tuned engine, and the weight reduction!
