Damn it looks good
Looks like a nice car. When it was built in 64, was it built with the shoulder hoop extended up like that?
Is there even a cert for 9.50?
Don't sell it man, I don't have room for another project! Seriously though, fuckin exceptional work

Oj, I have a question regarding the secondary bypass. Is it true that it only comes into play during the first 1/3 of the throttle? Basically to...
No and I can't do one now. The compressor died in my shop and I haven't been able to replace it yet. If it comes down to it I can drag the car to...
So here's an update for those that are following along. In the past week we have re-done the vent and fattened the BV. Took the car out last...
How tall of a person could drive a truck built like this? I love the look, chopped and channeled, but could a 6'4 person such as myself even think...
It's tomorrow!!
For me, the draw to Mr Roth was the fact that he's "different" or unusual. As you put it, "an ordinary person doing extraordinary things".
Ed is someone I have always looked up to, hell I have a giant rat fink tattooed on me. Did you know him? I couldn't even imagine how awesome of a...
[ATTACH] Did this 67 Jim Davis about 8 years ago. Certified to 7.50. Had to cut the car into quarters, sleeve the butt welds behind the driver,...
That's a real good looking car. What times does it turn? Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
I don't much like roadsters (I'm freakin tall), but I really like that one.
Yes, I do agree that getting it flowed is the way to go. I'm not ignoring those that have suggested that. Dave rebuilt and flowed one pump, and...
Honestly, I feel fine with it. I know what the Sfi spec is on whatever car I'm driving. If I choose to not pay attention to it and it gets...
Ok so here's where it's at. Earlier today the vent was changed to a nice straight run, no dips, curves, etc. The car was fired with a 125 jet (it...
I don't know if that was meant towards my reply or not but no, it's not. I stay as hydrated as possible every day, heat or not. But I can see how...
For what it's worth (nothing really) I think the driver was out before he impacted the wall. I know what it's like to be sitting in a multi layer...
There's definitely only one jet in there. But it's certainly a good suggestion, thank you Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
I like the honesty. I actually just got off the phone with Jim. He's certainly not the most talkative but he did talk to me for a moment. He said...
Man, you guys are awesome. No we haven't solved the problem yet, but everyone's willingness to help is quite amazing. Unfortunately it will take...
Holy shit.....somedays I'm not proud to be a minitrucker
I've always wanted a hot rod, I've never wanted a dart. I'd keep the A!!! Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Yes, however the car won't even idle unless a small main jet is installed. With a 115 it will idle, with any crack of the throttle it dies. It...
That diagram is for tunnel ram. There is a different way to plumb it if you are blown. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
I don't understand it I guess. To be here you have to follow certain rules. Don't like it? Don't be here. Same thing with whatever show that is in...
I have found Dave to be quite knowledgeable. I've only spoken to mike via email, I feel like he only wanted to sell me something rather than be...
