Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
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. |

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
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. |

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
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 .

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
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!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
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.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
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.
