In my cheap cheap rebuild I bought an edelbrock mechanical pump as it just had a stock one. Im wondering when it will hold me back, sounds like its already is doing so. Im even still using the small 5 /16" line from the pump to the carbs, but it has 3/8" line from the tank to the pump. I suppose...

Its amazing that a small change on the cam helped that much. My rebuild was on the cheap cheap, my goal was to do it with no money, one of those dont do this at home boys, I had to call in a few favors as well. I believe I did the New Headers on Lee's car, they were sold thru Rick Waters who...

I got the 440 back together, I had a custom cam ground. They used the Ford lobes so the cam wouldnt be too agressive on parts. It is 270 intake 269 exhaust on a 109 lobe seperation. Its actually very streetable now that ive got it jetted correctly on the primary side. It idles at 1400 in gear...

just give me a call at work, im more than happy to help with header tech, its my life.... just look up the # on the website. Mark

Got a new update. I went to put on the 452 heads I had ported and the piston was .165 in the hole. I opted to pull the engine and do a rebuild. I did this on the cheap cheap, my goal was to spend little dough. I bought a set of SRP flat top pistons which put the piston about .010 in the hole. I...

Now you know you have plenty of power, its time to work on the car. As a Stock Eliminator Racer I can tell you going fast is half car, and half engine. Maybe some light rear wheels, buy aluminum drums for the trans, a pair of merge collectors. I believe with your current mph you can easily get...

Congrats !!! 10 bucks says that your hope for a 10 second street car hasnt ended there, I think youll be looking for a 10.50s time slip in the near future, at least you better be !!!! That how we progress .... Mark Lelchook Performance Welding Racing Headers

Seperate the tubes from the flange, cut the strap out of the middle. Then surface each tube individually. If they have a weld on collector and you cant seperate the tubes, give up and buy a nice set of headers, remember you get what you pay for. Mark Lelchook Performance Welding Racing...

Ive been looking at lobes, and I need to stop and say to myself that all these cams will be within .05 of each other, at most. We dynod loads of cams on my stocker and they were all so close. I think im just gonna order the XTQ286S, im sure it will be close enough. Pro Stock has a race coming up...

I Love the lift off 6 pack hood cars, your is a 68 thought right? I have many customers in Kangaroo country, Dave Newcombe, was the 1st in the sixes in Pro Stock there using my headers, and half the field in PS uses my stuff as well. I race Stock Elim. D E F /SA with a 69 Barracuda. But I love...

Its an A&A Stock port manifold. I just ported a set of 452s I had laying around. I got about 250 cfm out of them, not a lot, but I didnt go further than bowl work. It has a Pro Trans with the stock 2.45 low gear and roller bearings, no aluminum in it. Car has 4.10s and a loose 10" convertor. I...

Im looking at buying the Comp 290S as well. I use Comp Cams for my Stock Elim. car. I want to run in the high 10s low 11s, basicly the same as you. You can also call Comp and talk to the tech dept. They have lots of good lobes for Stock Elim. but there real agressive and need a lot of convertor...

New update on my header testing. I put on a old set of my 9" Hoosier Radials on the car with factory 8" steel wheels. I also put on my spare moroso electric water pump drive as well to try and keep the temp more consistent, and add a little power as well. Would you believe the car went a 12.59...

That sixty is a bit shy. To give you an idea my car in E/SA will go in the mid 10.50s and the sixty is about 1.38 - 1.40 . Youll never sixty with a stocker as our cars have lighter parts, but at that ET id guess you should sixty between 1.45 - 1.48 The best thing you can do to pick up ET at the...

My car is that light blue teal color, the factory color. Its a 64' post car, cheater slicks, old school front runners. Mark

Ill probably go, I wont take the Stocker since the track sucks there. I will go though, and probably bring the 64' Dodge and buy swap meet stuff. Thats unless it falls on one of the big NHRA races I have to go to. Mark

I got a set coming, thanks guys for all your help. If these arent perfect ill be looking for more. Thanks Mark

I have a customer Jerry Bennett with that combo he runs it in D/SA. Its now currently rated at 319 hp per NHRA I believe. Its not the best combo, its got a tough rating, but his engine builder and best buddy have it running real well. He ran that same combo back in the day. I asked him why he...

There's lots of talent up in them damn hills, just gotta look for it. My headers power most of the fastest Stock / Super Stock / Comp / Pro Stock Cars in the Country. And Im a Mopar Lover !!! Thanks Mark

Oh I know all about cheating, I have the current F/SA record holder @ 10.73 with a 69 Barracuda, was Rup at Indy last year in D/SA, and have been #1 qualifier many times over. The key is where to port, and how to get away with it . LOL Mark
