Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
I am trying to get my truck to the chassis shop for a few minor things before going to the paint shop. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
I figured I would post this over here instead in the tire thread, but your truck is one of the ones I draw inspiration from(no homo). Your pass time run was awesome. There are alot of fast trucks on here and yours got me hooked to really make mine fast(er). That and wanting beat a friend's Malibu, bc he constantly talks $*&^ and i would love to beat him just once!! He is running 11.3 on 100-shot and he has a 150 pill he has yet to try out. His car is sweet as hell though 79 nice 454 w/tremec 5spd and 9". His car is a blast to drive!!

New Anti Roll Bar!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
Where did you get that one? I was thinking of adding one of the splined ones from S&W
|
Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
seem a nice simple one a while back it was just a piece of roundbar in a piece of pipe that had mounting points for the frame
the roundbar has 2 flanges welded on the ends he just mounted another flange to that with bolts that had another piece of roundbar mounted on it sideways the downmount to the rearaxle could slide over that piece of roundbar before clamping it down wish gave you unlimited options for sensitivity its verry simple to put together needs verry little room between the chassis and the tire and most of the parts can be bought at a diy store or autostore |
Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
This one came from applied racing or ART. It is there middle one. It is actually pretty simple. You mount the tabs that hold the bearing blocks then slide the round stock in and weld your to it. It should be pretty light and pretty strong. I looked at the S&W piece also but their was more to the install and it was more expensive.
I got a box in today from S&W also. Pics to come a little later. |
Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
Actually I got two boxes from S&W but the main one I wanted was back ordered. Grrrrrr. When I ordered it they didn't say it was back ordered.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
WOW!
Just read the entire thread. And it's great to read over what has happend to your truck over the years. Hoping you get it back running soon and enjoy it as well. Any closer on getting it running? |
Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
Dang brother that was allot of reading. Its at the chassis shop then I plan to take it to the paint shop. It will probably be a spring debut. I'm trying to get my son's (Djjr) truck running by the end of next month.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
Anti Roll Bar. I am not real sure about the bars being at an angle but it wouldn't be real hard to change if it causes a problem. The Chassis guy says the are fine.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
I was running them on the 10 inch wheels that were on the truck when I got it and now I went up to a 16 inch diameter and to a 14 inch width.

Are you going with a single nozzle kit or 2 / 1 nozzle and 1 plate? Any way you go its going to wicked evil fast. I have never ran spray on my hot rods yet. Tuned on a bunch for people. Crazy amounts of MPH and ET gain. I do like the man sized tire and wheels you have gone with. So.... I see a doctors visit and some licensing passes in your future for advanced ET???? |
Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
I am gonna start with just a fogger. ( I had Monte Smith he is the head tech guy for NOS plumb and tune the fogger) If I need to I will add a plate.
