57,000 views!!! and still going strong!!! DJ your truck better run some #s! i think you got that down though. Are the drag strips still open down there? MIR (maryland intl raceway) closed last month. can't wait to get mine down that 1330 ft.

djracer · 12-04-2008, 08:32 PM

we race year round! Any reason you are going that extra 10ft!

hotrod 80 · 12-04-2008, 08:45 PM

Poetry in motin right there . Just plain sweet .

Lx3 · 12-09-2008, 10:15 AM

I don't know why you would want a truck that picks up and runs that

straight. Crooked and twisty makes better pictures. LMAO

Hey, check out what I scored for "FREE" I love my freinds.

Very nice, got a set of those too. Same guy who gave me mine gave me a L79 corvette winters intake manifold.

Lx3 · 12-10-2008, 09:57 AM

Hey leftcoast,

Do you happen to know what year these came on ? Just

curious, the bolt holes are offset if that helps. They're going on a

set of pretty nice 034 heads with shaft mount rockers. Don't tell

anyone, it's a secret.

djracer · 12-09-2008, 12:26 PM

Those are sweet. It leaves twisted now but I'm gonna try to fix that!

What has happened to let it twist? What are your thoughts on keeping it from flexing?
Hope you have great luck with the new engine.

It looks twisted and may be some what , but more than anything it is the axles natural rotation under power . The driverside tire is drivin into the ground and the passengerside tire is being lifted as the pinion is forced to rotate . Anti sway gets rid of most of this .

Lx3 · 04-17-2009, 07:31 PM

FINALLY.......

It's going in the truck this weekend. Truck is butt ugly but should drive
by next week.

joeys66pickup · 04-17-2009, 08:46 PM

trying not to notice the carb spacer,what looks to be a double pumper and the Single plain intake then maybe just maybe you would think it was a stock small block with a Pretty Carb!

phipp13 · 12-16-2008, 12:52 AM

my bad on the extra 10 ft it's been almost 20 years since i've crossed that stripe! it won't be another year though. 09 i'll have some video and #s hopfully 1/2 way respectfull #s

djracer · 12-16-2008, 07:36 AM

good luck with your times I was just pickin at you about the 10 ft.

Lx3 · 12-16-2008, 08:26 AM

Hey,

Think I'm gonna' try the 4-7 cam swap. I've got a freind picked up

2 tenths and says it takes some harmonics out.

Any thoughts or comments ?

watahyahknow · 12-16-2008, 10:21 AM

there was a story about it in the hot rod a while ago and i seriously considering doing the same

djracer · 12-16-2008, 11:33 AM

My next cam is a 4/7 swap!

Lx3 · 12-17-2008, 08:59 AM

70rs/ss talked me out of the extra $$$ for the street but for the

track I don't see passing.

Did I mention my freind picked up 2-tenths. And he's NO ROOKIE

djracer · 12-19-2008, 09:14 AM

Cross your fingers guys I took a 502 block to the machine shop yesterday hoping it will clear at .030. With my stroker crank that will make a 548.

watahyahknow · 12-20-2008, 09:55 PM

fingers and toes crossed ....... let me know wat happened

djracer · 12-22-2008, 01:51 PM

Block is fine we are gonna have a 548 in there by spring.

phipp13 · 12-22-2008, 02:04 PM

Cool.

shortbed70 · 12-29-2008, 07:54 PM

glad to hear it wasn't junk, good luck

djracer · 01-05-2009, 08:52 AM

I actually did some trading and got a bowtie block so if it checks out I may run it to keep from having to run gen VI stuff. The gen Vi block is already bored but the guy it belongs to really didn't want to sell it anyway so he may keep it for his boat if the bowtie block checks out.

This thread needed another post I wasn't liking how many it had.

djracer · 01-19-2009, 01:24 PM

I'm gonna upgrade the anti roll bar to get it not to twist as much. It has twisted since I bought and Tom said it did this with him also.
