----Grudge Match Bet V8 Flathead vs. OHV Straight 6 ----

At this point sabatoge might be a help to you!

 

If (big IF) the Flatty loses, bring that six up here and I whoop on it!

 

A little late to the dance here, but I have to go for the six...
(Though truth be told, if not, I'd feel like I have been wasting my life on my 215... so yes, I'm biased!)
Keep us posted.

 

You better whoop that flatty!

 

I am goin with the Inline 6, being as I am a diehard inliner, we need some more guys to put these V8 dudes in line haha! I will post pics of my Pontiac 230 I am doin as soon as its all together.

 

Flattie

 

i got 10.00 on the Flathead only because i run one myself.TIP: Torque those rear axel nuts down to 200lbs so you dont brake a axel key. been there done that. Sure would like to be at the end of the quarter mile to see it. Good Luck. 8-Ball

 

Ha haaa, does the HAMB have an official bail bondsman? I'll bet Clark Country makes a lot in traffic fines when VLV is in town.

Drive with care, don't feed that bear…

 

Where does the term stovebolt come from?

 

Anybody see the Letter from the Editor in this month's R&C? He said they're interested in testing and getting some numbers on...wait, hold on to your seat..
flatheads and sixes!!!!
Can we can an R&C person involved for coverage/sponsership

ps-6's all the way!

 

hey if R&C wants to waste there time seeing a 6 getting blowin away.. I'm in!!!

hahaha GFY Travis!

 

Oh, Dammmm.. Slowpoke got his shit running today.. Hook up the other two carbs, sumbitch, and were gonna have a race!!!!!!!!!!

 

V8's are all noise! inlines just fine-if ya wanna go,six in a row!
(blown oz 265 hemi 6-all go some show!)

 

i'll take the three carb set up. being a drag race in all.that things soundin sweet. hes goin up and down the street right now. no lights!

 

Iam goin for the six ,but then what the fruk do I know

 

Hey when are you blokes going to race???

I reckon a months build up is enough, I want to see a timing slip!


oh yer.

GO THE FLATHEAD!!!!

 

The laging is my fault. I had some problems with the head that had to get worked out. As for timing slips, not gonna happen were racing somewhere in our town and its just for bragging rights.

 

My money would be on the better driver!

Is car weight about the same?

Though put me down for the inliner.

 

OK.. It's coming soon... Travis still needs to break in the motor and we race!!

 

LMAO!!!!!!

 

aahh you fuckin love it...

WERE RACING TO THE CLU BRIDGE!!! Down!

 

Its supposed to be a 1/4 mile to the second no parking sign after the bridge. We used to race that all the time in High School. haha

 

as Jay said this morning... "1/4 will take to damn long for those cars! 19 seconds+".. the bridge is far enough, cause we both will top out at 80!

GFY

 

I originally posted rooting for the flattie but I just noticed 215 slopoke has a '53 mainline which is what I have. Mine's got the 239 flat in it though. Since there aren't many of these that I see around I am divided on who to root for. I'm still rootin' for the flattie.

 

Hey, what are ya doing to the back of the car, Travis??.. cutting out metal isn't gonna help you!! HAHA

GFY

 

LOL

you hush flatty boi!

stand on er Travis

 

Hahahahaha!!! Try an 18 second video clip! Ahahahahaha!!!

I pic the flathead powered shoe box to win!

Sam.

 

Must see TV!

I will vote for the inline 6 on the premise of less likely to fail during race

The rebuilt 215 is a thing of beauty too!

 

I was getting curious about what was going on with you guys, I'm and inline man, go Travis!

 

Its now being "PLANNED".... There will be a video crew, GSG productions, and The Chief at Garage Mag is is thinkin of runnin a bit on it... Fuck, I better win!
