Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Rick thanks for the compliments. I see you found the extra power you were looking for. You been keeping that a secret huh? My plans right now are to have the truck back together by the end of January (fingers crossed). Then go test in February, maybe at Extreme Raceway or Ennis. I plan on my first race being the Houston Divisional March 22nd.

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Yes we did find a few more hp. Motor didn’t like the Sniper Jr so had some more work done to the Super Victor and a few other small tweaks. I Passed by The new track towards Dallas last month and Looks like a nice track. Good luck and if you need any pit crew help let me know. I could help you out in Houston as I’m only an Hour from the track

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
I just brought the truck back home from the chassis shop. My old friend Tony Smith that built the cage,rear end and headers. Tony cut the 2 1/4 step out of the headers and rebuilt them with 2 3/8 all the way to the 5' collectors. He also made me a neat little alternator bracket and a T-Stop solenoid bracket that will double as a spring bracket for the throttle.[IMG][/IMG]

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Looks like some plumbing workarounds ahead for you? Headers look good, real good!
My guy got mine rough fitted on the passenger side last week but my motor likes 28" 2-1/4 x 2-3/8 primaries with a slip on 4-1/2" high velocity merge collector, so not long enough to make it under the cab, had to angle them down and out, don't look nowhere as nice as yours lol, but should make power. Sure like the looks of them tucked under more like yours but engine builder said would have to give up a bit of power and I didn't want to give any up, already giving up some with the block. Not sure I'll even build an exhaust for off the track this time, never street drive it anymore anyway.

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Brought me a shiny new water pump. Told a buddy I'm out of the 80's now. No more external pump drive.[IMG][/IMG]

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Man I’d love to see this thing sometime this year... I’m just a ways away in Forney but plan to spend a lot of time in Enid and extreme this year. Not racing but supervising!

Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime
Thanks Guys. I'm pecking away at it. I dropped the headers off to be coated Tuesday. I will have them back in a couple weeks. Hopefully it will start coming together pretty soon. I'm tired of it being scattered all over the shop.
