Skid Mark - how fast for 5k?

[Mater]

hmm from working at the dealer only remeber seeing them on the lincolns and the convert stangs to help them ride better then the mustangs and t-birds

Before Matt and I got the falcon off the trailer I spent a few bucks at the car wash to defunkify the car... and there's still plenty of funk.

some simple green, left to soak, then the power washer should go a long way to making it less hazardous to work under this thing.

I'm going to pick up a needle de-scaler one of these days to help chip off the undercoating underneath the falcon - heat gun and putty knife work, but not quickly.

Try wiping the majority of it off with a different cat.

Persians or Himilayans work nicely......but any will do in a pinch. Just change cats often for best results.

There is a neighbor cat... and I thought about it. Frozen cat makes a fine toilet scrubber. But... after seeing the lady that owns the cat, I can't do it. She's, well, she walks the damn cat. The cat loves her. She's kinda special, if you get me. I would not intentionally cause her any kitty problems.

The other f*ing thing in my back yard? Probably needs to be power washed. Too bad the car won't scrape frame any more.

I'm finally (only 3.5 weeks late) ready to pull the 302/aod in one reasonably unmolested piece. At least the engine harness survived my drunken die grinder/wire cutter bit.

Whoa, I didn't even know there was such a thing as a "needle descaler." Sweet!

this car was originally planned to be a 2500.00 budget and it would have been close. It could have made it. You guys ragging me over the pathetic truck motor compression... which I had planned on correcting with an HX55 clone .75 kg/s turbo. Well, I'm running out of time to go that route and I can't sleep at night now.




1700.00 for a set of heads. Probably an instant 100 hp or more. Bastids! It could still get in under 5000.00 with these. They are keeping me up at night. 72 cc , aluminum (probably 70 pounds saved), good chamber, I'm coming up with 10.68:1 with zero deck. Of course, that means new cam, and I'm thinking small solid, like a comp 282.

BBR - is that Lem or Charlie Evans?

Cam - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CRN-354561/ for a hydraulic, sims out about the same as the Comp solid. I'm leaning towards the solid, I think it will actually idle better.

/and a bigger converter and more carb and porting the intake and rocker arms and pushrods and 3.73's and now it needs an o/d and ... gawd. Thanks. Really. lmao.

[Russell]

Lol you should have left the 302 in it added slicks and a 200 shot! I see you have fallen off the slipper slope

[SuperBuickGuy]

snicker, project creep

why not ditch the entire frame and go with a tube chassis? maybe 25.3 cert?

[Beagle]

I'd really like to get into what I think of as a "jacket class" and while I would never expect to place, I'd like to at least be able to taunt Randal or James. lol.

BBR's 122mph trap speed is haunting me. The AOD behind the 302 would barf on a 50hp hit, a C4 would need to be built. It'd need all of this head and still maybe Naaawwwss, both Randal and James have sexy aluminum heads. I'll be like the little kid trying to tag along but riding a Schwinn Stingray with chrome fenders, when everyone else has Mongeese!

focus... must stay focused. Bastids... Iceholes. lmao@self.
