Thanks for the info Dave. I will definitely consider the advise about the rod length vs the operating rpm of the engine.

Ok so I have been running a 2340 stock rod engine at the tracks I have around me. All are 1/4 mile or tight 1/3 mile. Gearing and tire size are the same at all 3 tracks for my car. I run about...

Yeah just ask for one from an 86 T-Bird with a 302 in it. Bolts right up to the mustang spindle.

I saw a post on facebook from Esslinger that they had tested the carb on the dyno and weren't very happy with the AFR numbers.

(Esslinger Engineering) Let's just say that the AFR climbed from 10.8...

5in springs. The 5 and 1/2in springs are to big to fit the stock lower control arms.

Well here is the dilemma I have with the ATI Damper. I am not planning on staying in 4 cylinders after next season. If all goes as planned I will be moving into Sport Mods since the RWD 4 cylinder...

Thanks for the answers and info so far. I posted this in this Late model forum because you guys are the ones I expect to be using all the good safety equipment. I am running a Mini Stock mustang...

I am going to get one this off season and am wondering what you guys recommend? Or have you run different types and like one over another. The one I am looking pretty hard at is the Simpson hybrid...

Now that you mention that I remember having to sit there with my parts guys and go through the computer to find the right disk that was something like 7 and 1/2 inch and 23 spline? Don't remember...

Yes the 1.9 flywheel is lighter and the engine will rev faster and the more weight you can get off of the rear of the crank the better. Not nearly as light as the aftermarket flywheel assemblies...

Think I will just go ahead and pull it apart. I am interested in what everything looks like anyways. I didn't do a leak down test but the oil pressure is the same as it was at the beginning of the...

I have about 20 races, give or take a couple of nights, on the engine. Total seal gapless rings and non coated bearings, crank and rods are balanced but I don't run a balancer yet. Should I go ahead...

What alternator are you guys using? And is anyone using the power steering pump and if so is it stock or a racing unit?

Like Dirtman, I run the Napa Gold filters. The oil I used to use in my hyd head engine was Rotella 40 weight diesel oil. It seemed to work just fine but since changing to a solid lifter set up I have...

Friday June6th will be a 30 lap feature for Late Models 3000 to win 200 to start Modified 1000 to win 75 to start Sports Mod 800 to win Bombers 800 to win 4 cyclinder 600 to win. Want to thank all...

Thanks for the info guys. I bought one for a 74 Mmustang II 2.0 and it's what I needed. Took them a week to get one at my local parts store. Autozone and Advanced couldn't even order them.

What application is this rack for?

Well I answered one of my own questions. The tilton tooth count is 135 and the stock escort was 132. I know there are 2 starters. One 9 tooth and one 10 tooth. I do have a 10 tooth i am going to try...

I bought a older used Tilton clutch setup for my 2.3 Ford. The ring gear has been re welded and looked pretty straight. I didn't check run out on the ring gear when I changed the flywheel and the...

Pretty much the info above is what i did with a couple of my FWD cars. I used an inline electric fuel pump from late 80's EFI ford f150 plumbed into the original fuel line. There should be a...

Or more to the point between a aluminum flywheel/stock type pressure plate or a mini clutch/flex plate. It's for a 2.3 ford on a 1/4 and 3/8 tracks. What are the pros and cons of both? I am running a...

Thanks for the info so far! One thing I am wondering also is, what can we use to test seat pressure on the 2.3 ohc? I see a lot of pressure testers but they don't appear to be usable on an over head...

I just bought a head and it has a 528/538 solid lifter flat tappet cam in it. what seat preasure should i be looking for in springs? Does 120 ish sound right? I looked up the info for the cam and...

I had a rocker arm wear and break a lifter and the lifter boss in a hydraulic head. I was planning to convert it over to a solid head this off season. the boss broke towards the spring and it broke...

Thanks for the info guys.
