" From: amxron@xxxxxxxxxxx " " Use a 72 up block, the new lakewood to chev bell and most any good " trans is available w/gm bolt pattern and a multitude of gear ratios " are avail. Blowproof clutch & flywheel are MANDATORY w/500 hp! " BTW- before lakewoods you had to make a .250 steel enclosure around " the bellhousing 360 degrees. Blankets were not made until later and " could ONLY be used on automatics. " Been racing since 1963, seen some clutch explosions, nasty....... i saw don garlits, live on national tv. it cut his car in half. it also took most of his feet and put him into the hospital for months, and he was extremely lucky to get off that lightly. ________________________________________________________________________ Andrew Hay the genius nature internet rambler is to see what all have seen adh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and think what none thought _______________________________________________ Amc-list mailing list Amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://splatter.wps.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/amc-list
