Event Coverage Welcome to the 2017 Meltdown Drags

SO? ISKENDERIAN OR ISKY?
I have a new cam coming from ISKY and pretty excited about it. Among other changes to the Austin this winter, the cam is custom designed including 4/7 swap and proper lift etc. I don't advertise much on the car but I think if you are actually using a killer product from one of the biggest names from back in the day, why not flaunt it.

So here is my question. Have both names been in play from the beginning? Was there a time span in the beginning where it was ISKENDERIAN and later on ISKY? Originally I was leaning toward "ISKY Racing Cams" or Powered by ISKY", but when I started looking up vintage race photos there were a lot of the other. I see Jeffery even has the full name on his fenders. Any thoughts on the matter?

 

Jackson you get this fixed?

 

Randall I thought we were going to name you the official cam grinder.

 

Oh I can grind the living daylights out of one. But I think Ed's grind is probably going to be more efficient. Lol

 

Gearumpy Junkins

 

I think the full name is more appropriate if you are trying to be representative of the 60's. If that is not what you are trying to do, then you should pick which one you like.

 

Lucky me I got a number.

 

Yep James I fixed that 45 min after it happened then this happened and yes I have it fixed too lol


I fixed it with 361" of big mopower now I'm waiting on some nozzles from hilborn to finalize the injector should be fun

I forgot

OH... NOOOOOO... Mr Bill lol

 

Jackson you always get all you can out of what you got.
You know Ric is happy that's not one of his.

 

Picked up Intake & distributor yesterday from engine builder. Plan is to set on mock up motor & check distributor cap clearance with intake manifold. Finish running fuel line to new McRobb Regulator & figure where to put McRobb inline filter. When that's figured out powder coat the intake.

James if it had been one of Ric's it wouldn't have happened but a set of Ric's pistons cost more than my entire engine cost lol plus my motor wasn't good enough for a set of his pistons lol when you build from a trash can you get what you get lol I do however have a motor in the works that will have a set of his beauty's in it along with lots of other really bitchin stuff

My buddy that came with us to your place has a pinto drag car. He likes racing there. He was asking yesterday if I though we would have the ranch ready by April. I'm thinking positive. We can have it ready. Dropped off the short block yesterday. Guy says it shouldn't be to long to get it done. Couple weeks.

That's the spirit.
You know July will be here before long.
Every day you live it becomes a smaller part of your life.

 

Sticker from the 60's

 

Thanks, I have seen those decals, they are pretty cool. Love the "POLY"dyne! But I like the old school look of the simple text. I am going with the last one. No crazy directional issues on the other side.

 

Got my number, lucky #47. Now I have to figure out a route to take to get there from Las Vegas, Nevada,
.

 

Highway 15,70,76,80,88,2

 

So what do you think the HEMI Truck is going to run in 2017? ...Or are you keeping that a match racing secret?!

 

I really don't know why you think it has a hemi Randall last I knew the early hemis were all 392" I do have one but it's not in there but I've had this sweet virgin 361 Chrysler for years and it will run way better than the little ol chevy motor remember there is no substitute for cubic inches

Well I got screwed mine is only a 354

 

Oh sorry I thought it was some kind of early stroked HEMI....my bad. Should have paid closer attention. So you mean it's just a plain old Chrysler? LOL! You got a "wedgie"

No man I am not in the budget for a stroked hemi wish I was lol of course if I had dragnasty money it would be no problem lol All kidding aside seriously you could have a stroked hemi for the coin you have in that chevy lol
