Langley Speedway in Virginia Supertruck for sale. Chevy S10 with 2500cc Ford engine. Very strong engine with 10 races, details available if interested. New nose, fresh paint. LOTS of spare parts - 2...

I have a brand new Kevko 6 quart pan with rails, but no pickup. Will sell it for 125.00 plus shipping from 23061. I take PayPal.

Old post but I found a cheaper fix than the Speedisleeve. Race Engineering sells a seal with an offset lip for $11.00 Worked like a charm. just some info for others with the same issue.

Getting out of racing. 1986 S10 with Ford 2500cc. All the best parts in motor: 0.040 over with 10 races. Light crank, forged rods, forged Wiseco metric pistons, ATI Superdamper, shaved D-port head...

Dave - I have the stock crankcase breather and one on the valve cover, not sure what else I could try. The deal where you use the header to pull from the valve cover area is illegal for us. BTW,...

Got a problem I haven't seen addressed on here. My 2300 crank is in great shape, the right weight, good journals, etc, but there is a small groove worn in the crank where the rear main goes. I can't...

Thanks TC65, good to know. I have one of the square Ford coils and will give it a try. will also try the MSD piece. Appreciate the info.

I switched to an Accel coil at the last race and it ran fine in qualifying and practice. I max out at about 7700 on the track and had no issues. the thing is, Mel says not to run any coil but his or...

Hey Brad - we may not have to worry about it if Langley falls apart, right? Wiring from the coil to the distributor is straight Mels stuff as supplied by him. From the ignition to the coil is...

The coil is mounted vertically and the coil wire is the standard one Mel supplies with his kits. Still not sure why I'm burning through his coils and would prefer to go with another brand if I can...

take a look at Lunati cams also. Running one myself on a 4/10 paved, flat oval and am very happy with it. Also prepping a Schneider cam for use with a different head. the Lunati is 550/530 lift and I...

First, what are your track rules? This board is an excellent source for help. You might also try Jerry at Schneider Cams. Great guy and he can recommend something if you have your engine particulars...

Thanks Dave

My mistake on that, they are wired parallel, getting 13 volts. I run 2 batteries for (1) minimizing voltage drop during the races and (2) adding weight to the left side without using an extra bar of...

Thanks but I'm not running an alternator. I am running two batteries in series to keep the voltage up during the race. What voltage is considered too high?

Thanks but I believe I'm OK there. I mounted the coil on the front down tube of the roll cage, on the side opposite the header and about a foot outboard of the block and up level with the intake. I...

Running a Mel's distributor and coil for several years with few problems until the last race weekend this season. Engine developed a stumble/miss above 7000 RPMs. After trying all the obvious things...

Start with the LF at the minimum for your rulebook, maybe 1/8 more for wiggle room. RF up 1/2 from there, LR up 1/2 from RF, RR up 1/2 from LR. That's been how I start out and play with it from...

Don't build this motor! it will not stand up to serious racing. I ran one for 3 seasons in an S10. After blowing up 4, I switched to a Ford 2500cc. And this was using the best parts - aftermarket...

Set of used .030 Wiseco forged pistons using the thin metric ring package for the 5.7 rods. Used in approximately 30 races and are in very nice condition - no dings, cracks, etc. Cost $499 new, sell...

Ran this engine for 3 years in our local class. never made a complete season without at least one blown engine, despite using only top quality parts. save your money, or convert it to a Ford or...

I run the old Chevy Monza power steering pump. Easy to fabricate mounts on the driver's side and it's been bulletproof for 3 seasons.

while you've got it apart, go ahead and spring for one of the ATL dampers-expensive but worth it. Added one to my motor 2 seasons ago on the advice of a smart guy on this forum. The difference in...

have heard from several engine builders that Valvoline Racing oil does not have the same amount of ZDDP as it used to and it is unsuitable to run in a solid cam motor unless an additive is used. I...

the problem I had with the stock ignition is that the cap will not clear the intake (using the Holley intake). Mel uses the short cap and it clears the intake fine.
