Projects Toymaker's Twin Engine Dragster Build

Thanks Guys, here is some stills from Dos Palos.

 

All it needs is a radiator and some lights and we have a new cruise night car in the making!

 

That's one nasty beast!
I love it!

 

Congratulations! Sounds good. I expected to hear some whining from the meshed flywheels...but really didn't.

 

dude we are unworthy-sounds damn good

 

All I can say is " BITCHIN !!!!!!!"...................................
and the stills look good also, man is it neat Roc

 

Hell I heard that all the way over here! Looking killer!

 

Saahhwheeet.

The ring gears add a whole extra harmonic to it.

Look forward to seeing a pass.

 

Too frickin cool!!

 

This is too trick. That jewel fired first crank.

How hard was it to get all those Strombergs tuned in?

Awesome! nice work. I love it!

 

How sweet it is! How many new BFF's do you have now, hee hee.

Now, you are going to put a towel down on those batteries so they don't eat the ass out of your pants, right?

 

That's a heck of an flame throwing Pipe Organ your building.
Very nice work Toymaker. Won't be to long and we'll all get to witness noise turn into smoke.

Video is too kool! Hope to see you in it @ eagle field. Hope to have my toy running by then. Later. Jim

 

Any Idea when she'll make her first run down the track?

 

Too Cool Rock! Cant wait to see you driving it!

 

Man, my friends Skip, carl and Tim are all hammering away and I haven't been gett'n anything done! I Finally purchased the SFI Steel flywheels I needed, removed the ring gears and now need to make a trip to have the Machine Shop machine them to accept 2 Ring Gears. Once that is done I'll have Lee TIG the gears to the Flywheels, put short welds evenly spaced. A good friend of mine gave me a new McLeod Cover and Sintered Iron Disc to run and I think it will hold as I plan on "Blowing the Tires Away" and releaving stess on the clutch, we'll see

I also started on the "Hair Pins" for the Front end , give me something to do while waiting on $$$$$$


Meanwhile she just sits and waits for attention, I'm taking her to Gustine this weekend then i can take her all apart to finish the Bellhousings, Flywheels, Oil Pans, Chassis, order axles, get the "Pumpkin" ready, Brakes, Steering, on and on and on October 8th will be here quick! Rocky

 

Go Rocky, Go........

 

....... to the tune of "Go Jimmy, Go".

 

Gonna try to keep after it, we've been the busiest we've been in 3 years @ work. A great thing but hard on having fun

 

I want to see pictures of it with the body on!

 

That sounds awesome, congrats!

 

My older brother always used to say "When busines interferes with pleasure cut out the business. " Trouble is he is still working and I retired early. Anyway Time is the great cure. It will happen when is time. Great build.

"Hair Pins" and brackets are done and waiting for my son to weld them up, I couldn't wait and welded the Hairpins with the mig but Lee will Tig the rest.


The rear mount is a "Stub" that goes thru the upright and into the x-member.




I really happy with the look, a Radius Rod would of worked but the Hair Pins are the look it needed. Although not an issue with my as there is no front suspension, the "Torsion" arms would have to be slotted for the bolt that that holds them to the axle to eliminate binding.


Blew the rearend apart, took the measurements and ordered the axles today as October 8th is getting close.

 

Awesome Rocky...Looking forward to seeing it run at Eagle Field.

 

Thanks Tom, I've been a Slacker but I don't have the time for that anymore

 

Nice fabrication skills! .........getter done!!

 

Man I love this build. Looking real good, hairpins turned out nice!

 

Sweet FED, keep up the great work!

 

You sir are an inspiration to us all. I can't wait to see this thing go. Lippy
