Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: INDY versus Edelbrock versus stock heads....HELP!!

[Davis Martin <martin-davis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yup I completely agree. look what I did with an 8to1 compression worn out 140K mile 360. 300 RWHP no tuning I made 12.66 @ 107 should get to low 11's with some good track time n tuning.  

 I finished the swap and my 70 drag car now has the light 79 spirit disk brakes on it. I ordered the stuff to plum my 8 gal rci fuel cell to the holley black pump then to my holley reg and then to the carb. I took Georges advice and got the summit big cam kit and roller timming set. I am still looking for an r4b and a set of roller rockers. I have a set of 291c heads to swap on and a set of headman headers. I picked up a moroso electric water pump drive kit, v-8 radiator, electric radiator fans, I welded in frame connectors, and now am starting to fix the rust in the back cargo area. I have a gremlin dash dyed black to replace the aluminum dash also. Picked up a nice set of bolt on traction bars to replace the universals that were on there. got a set of wheels with slicks, got a 727 built by TCI with a rev pattern VB and a TCI 8" converter good for 4500. Hurst quarter stick shifter, 8 point roll cage.

 SO George SR as you can see... I have been busy. And still have alot to do!

 That BBO gremlin of yorus is really nice.
