Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Lookin good Jim! Have you been racing much? I had a few gremlins tonight so I didn't make it to the track! I will go try my junk out tomorrow or Sunday! I have done tons of junk to mine since the begining of the year! It may be slower on the motor but it should ride on the gas!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Kevin, Did you notice the exhaust exits? We are calling them skirt blowers...lol I am doing my last license pass tomorrow. I went with 33x16x15 Toyo's. I destroyed the side walls on the MT 32x14 stiff side walls in 5 passes. I really don't understand how they went south so soon.

I'm still working out the bugs, been a best of 6.08 at 114 and a tire spinning 9.95 @ 134

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Cool Jim,
I bought a really big set of brodix aluminum heads, new nitrous cam, Jesel Belt drive, Jesel shaft rockers, and a speedtech plate! It may be a pig on the motor but it should go on the juice! I bought most of this stuff for my next motor! I hope to buy or build a 632!

Kevin

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

They are Kirkey's! They are just a padded aluminum seat but they hold you in real well!

I am at a loss with my junk it actually ran pretty decent off and on today! My problem (whatever it is) comes and goes!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Are you running a crank trigger? make sure it is the correct polarity and that the wires do not run with(touch) any other wires. I also had a fan motor going south that effected the crank trigger. Did you "phase" the dizzy? check to make sure the rotor is pointing at #1 at TDC

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

It does have a trigger and it is phazed and the wiring has not changed since last year. The only thing different is I'm using 16 volt batteries! We thought we may have had a bad pickup so I borrowed one the wires match up color to color!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

How did the fuel pressure turn out?

16 volt and fuel pressure just turned on a light bulb upstairs! Might be over running the regulator.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

You aren't the only one who thought that voltage might have been a problem but my regulator has a -10 supply and a -10 return line! It was running good again tonight with the 16 volt but for the heck of it I swapped to a 12 volt it still ran good then the gremlins returned! I'm confused!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

I did try a new dominator but it did not have progressive secondaries so it was really strange!

Cooper and I talked a while ago. Next time it acts a fool throw the timing light on it. Maybe the MSD is bouncing the retard on.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Hey Big Jimzlll
did you buy those headers ready to install or did you build them yourself?

Hard to find big tube headers for our trucks , found some weld up stuff that they say I can make fit but I will probably need a few extra bends also.

Very cool ride.
