 Post subject: New Race Engine
PostPosted: Wed Jun 26, 2002 7:54 pm 
Well this weekend I finally got to try out my engine that I have been working on since 1992. It has custom 7" long rods,13-1 pistons,roller cam with .640" lift,bore diameter of 3.530,home made dry sump oil pan,home made hedders,home made intake with three 350 cid Holleys,Ford valves and Chevy big block rocker arms. What a mess of parts! Took it to our race track and the first run my shift light in high gear came on way before the end. Wow this is neat !!! To make a long story by the end of the weekend my best time was 11.581 @ 111.31 MPH The rest of the weekend I drank a lot of beer. The wait was worth it.

Uhmmm, could be another 10 sec slant in the works . . .
Dave, please send us some of those PIC to post!
The way I see it is you do a couple of more weeks of shake-out tuning then box the whole thing up and hual it out to Clay City, KY!
