If you think drag racing is expensive, you ain't seen nothin' yet!!!!!!!:LOL: :LOL: :LOL: Wait till you bring it home all wadded up, and the engine kicked the rods out cuz your foot was planted on the accelerator when the back end was off the ground!!!!!!!!:CRY: :CRY: :CRY:

5 comfirmed sponors and a 6th who i need to talk to.

Cool! :cool:

holy smokes! 6 sponsors and counting!!!! a 7th we have an interview to go to tomorrow. anybody here cut vinyl letters? wow to bad i couldnt get them when i was racing all the time haha.

IT RUNS again haha, sounds like its onkill. motor is buttoned up cept for a finall lash check and time it ran out of fuel before we got to do that haha. my buddy is finally going to show me this book he has about how to tune ladder bar suspension he used to drag race to so we are going to try to get them them unstickey mickeys <sportsmans> to hook up. man i cant wait. i still want that 11. its in there i just need the power to the ground!!

Cool! I have sportsman pros that I use as my street tires but I've taken them down the strip a few times and they hooked good... last time I tried though I was still in low 13 second trim... ladder bars with monoleafs... just saying they can be made to hook but I haven't tried it with the power stepped up... let us know how it turns out

i still need to ask you guys, what oil do you run. i ahve 3 thousandths clearance on the rods and mains. bunch of guys are syaing straight 50 kendall or valvoline + a bottle of additave. what do you say?

There will be many opinions... I swear by Brad Penn Grade 1 20w50 for race engines partial synthetic "The Green Oil". Others will say Royal Purple... I think for racing you'll want the protection of a synthetic blend or straight synthetic but the stuff ain't as cheap as straight mineral petroleum (which isn't very cheap anymore either).

You'll lose some power with the heavier oil but it protects components better than like a 10w30

In my previous motor I had good luck with Castrol GTX...

Two cents from my experience and those of other customers of my engine guy that use the stuff...

-Chris

I've always ran Mobil 1 in mine, never had any trouble. Synthetic is a bit more expensive, but worth it IMO

thanks for the advice i ended upg etting valvoline VR1 straight 50 it says it has zddp already in it. car is done FINALLY. all i gotta do is warm it up and re chck valves thats 20 minutes whoopie!!

UPDATE, the 30th we had 198 drag cars, and 288 street racers the 13th just this last weekend we had 220 drag cars and 382 street racers a new record!!!!!!
