Well I guess the clutch is locking up OK. Your little 295" must be really be making some HP. Tell us how fast you went on an easy pass. If you have trouble finding a close ratio 4-speed let me know.

Don't know if I have these numbers exactly right, but I guess normaly about 25% of HP get eaten up in the drive line. I understand that the NASCAR boys have that down to 10 to 15%. Things like a Quic

Since you don't have a problem swaping engines go ahead save the "D" for Bonneville and run the "C" at Maxton. Find a 'very' close ratio 4-speed and get your drive line sorted out in June. Whats the

Thanks for the understanding. This is one issue that generates a lot of heat, but few workable answers. Were all competitive individuals, or we probably wouldn't be involved in LSR or any other sport

As I understand it you only need the radiator in the /GC or /PRO classes, you can use a tank in /ALT and /CC if you want to. I've used a tank a Bonneville for many years with no problems. JB suggesti
