All your cars looked great. Title: Re: Midwest contingent racing pics Post by: javabug on July 31, 2012, 00:43:54 am Great showing guys. Happy to see cars from the eastern half out and burning it up.
Mike, I don't believe we've gotten a report on your car now that it's on the road??? Looks nice — throw us a bone here! Title: Re: Midwest contingent racing pics Post by: Fritter on July 31, 2012, 18:36:34 pm My blue '64 has 1600 miles on it now, since springtime. ;D
I just installed a Deano shifter last weekend in it, replacing my copper bent Hurst. Right now the car has a stock 4:37 tranny and a slightly hot rodded 1600. By that, I mean * Deano DCN kit/linkage " Santana power pulley " Bosch 019 disty * Extractor/dual QP's with stock heater boxes It ran a 18.9 in the quarter! Not a firebreather. ;D I'm in the process of trying to decide what to update the drivetrain to. On one hand, I could build an "internet" combo and just order up a Rancho trans and a 2332/IDA motor, and on the other hand I could try to use my cool old parts and build more of a "period" type drivetrain. I most likely will be putting those Deano copy wheels on it, too. The ones Dean Kirsten has posted about. |
