    Nitrous advice!

    Goals for this year??

    I will take some pics and post em up for you when I get it back together, I got the entire motor apart for a rebuild since having an unschedualed high speed teardown. It is pretty nuts to ride, 1.05 to 1.1 60 foot time. It does 150 to 160 mph in the 1/8 mile and 180 to 200 mph in the 1/4 on one...

    how high is too high octane

    1/4 Mile Vs Hp

    I was just quoting Slow from a post he made on SM about the run. I have that pass on video on my computer. I think he also said that less than 13K including the purchase of the car, was invested in it.

    Rebuild / ARP Engine Hardware

    If you are going to go through all the time and trouble to do such a complete rebuild, it would be foolish not to buy every ARP product for the 7m in the catalog.

    Has anyone ever...

    All a sleeve does is allow you to press it out and press in a new one everytime you want to rebuild with out reboring the block. Like IJ said, you would have to bore the block way too much just to install sleeves that will fit anywhere near stock piston size.

    Where to get a Head Lapper?

    I know what you mean. I would rather grill my own steak then eat one at the steak house. So I made my own lap tools and felt good about being able to do it myself.

    Where to get a Head Lapper?

    Wow, I can remember back years ago when every other conversation about the head was about lapping and doing it yourself. Well 4 or 6 years ago no one really understood what was involved or where to get the tools and I would say nothing has changed. I had to make my own lapping tools. just ask...

    What does it mean to O-ring a block?

    No way, in fact there is hardly any room between the water jackets and the chambers to o-ring anyway. The wire we were using is 50 thou.

    What does it mean to O-ring a block?

    We copper wire o-ring our drag bike IJ, We cut a groove in both the head and the cylinder for the one wire o-ring. Then we use bearing cinch (620 locktite) to seal the rest of the head. This worked well for many years but was a pain in the ass every time we had to deck the cylinder or the head...
