Want to talk about NSS Cars intellectually.

Let's talk about those Bulldog ported heads done by the infamous head porter?:coffee2:

Ok! (had nothing to do with my post) But please add your vast knowledge on those heads!

They are a standard port head that flow 308 cfm at .550 ,Porter did a great job and have no problems after 4 years.

I did think before the enter button was pressed because those heads would work on a Edelbrock STR-14 intake with a crossram which would be a NSS type of intake. Just wondering on flow numbers and if they would be better than a set of edelbrock heads.:naka:

If I was to do it over I would have waited the 6 mos. till the Indy EZ's came out.
At the time they seemed like a good option and Dwayne did a great job. Fact is I have almost $3400.00 Dollars in them so live and learn.
I was online looking for a STR for 3x2. I have a victor on it now to do some testing in the spring. Much like me car needs to drop some weight

STR-6 manifolds are antique dinosaurs. I believe theres better intakes out there now but if your want that nostalgia look, they fit the bill.
I ran a STR-14 crossram for a few years and went from 11.74 to 11.38 with some mods internally and staggered jetting. jetting was wildly different.

I love the NSS racing. I grew up in the 60's and 70's and all I wanted to do was get me a muscle car as soon as I was old enough. I love the cars because it brings back good merories of the best times in my life and I love the fact that you can tell what kind of cars they are. You know you can tell if my 63 Ply is racing a 64 Thunderbolt Ford. Not like now where all the race cars look like generic race cars.................in other words they all look the same and you cant tell a Dodge from a Chevy ! Seems most poeople today root for their favorite driver in racing and I guess they have to since all cars look the same. But not me I rooted for the cars I wanted to win and thats why I am so glad Sox & Martin raced the Mopars in their highlite of their careers.

I actually built my last eng for my 63 still on a tight budget as I have been all my life but I wanted a vintage looking SuperStock Mopar Max Wedge car that I could drive anywhere on the street for as far as I want and I wanted it to run 10's on pump gas thru the pipes just like I drive it. I am very pleased with my car as I have my street/strip car I can take to the local cruise or car show every weekend or to the local dragstrip and race. I have actually raced with the 422 NSS club twice as my brother races with them all the time. They let me run once a year or so when I asked but to be legal for their rules I need to put a name on my car and run 2 fours. I really cant afford to race alot anyway and I dont really want to put a name on my car. But if I get into some money where I could race more often I have consisdered a magnetic sticker for the car with the name........."Red Rocket" ! I actually want to try running two carbs one day and see how I like it. As for the car it has run 10.70's so far thru the pipes on pump and I just want to work it down to solid 10.50's. But I do love the NSS racing alot and I also enjoy the FAST and Pure Stock muscle cars also. I hope to try and run a few more races with the 422 club in the next year or two. Ron

Another eason I cant race as much as I would like is I have a bad back and bad knees that really bother me alot. In fact I live on pain meds. Thats why this past weekend I sat around at an indoor car show I was invited too. It was funny to see about 200 or more custom cars in this show with about 10 vintage looking muscle cars and drag cars. But I was surprised how many people stopped to talk to me about my 63. I stayed busy all weekend just talking to people as it was a 2 day show. Ron

 

[383man]

This is my brother 64 NSS car he races with the 422 club. It has run a best of 10.20's with a mild Eddy headed 499. He also has a tube frame 68 Cuda but I think I am the one who talked him into racing the 64 in the NSS racing as I love 68 Cuda's but his is a tube frame low to the ground race car with an aero scoop. I told him to get rid of the aero scoop and raise the car back up like a SuperStocker ! LoL ! He still has it but has not raced it at all this year as it wont fit into any NSS class like it is. Ron

 

[383man]

Another pics of brother car with new scoop that he plans to lower some. Ron

 

[383man]

One more of my 63. I enjoy driving it to the track as much as racing it. And I can claim I was the fastest NSS car with the 422 club when I raced with them that was driven to the track ! :hello2: LoL ! Ron

Looks like you're standing to me...:laughing7:
And I have a nice dual inline intake for you if you're wanting to go totally NSS.

COME ON RON!!!! pull the trigger and buy a crossram intake. its gonna be a long winter. save up and get one.

 

[383man]

I dont know Chris I am really liking this Indy dual plane for my 63 as its a nice street/strip intake. Ron

 

[actionange1]

Here's what you need Ron. Or anyone else out there wanting to get into NSS.

 

[black64]

Good thread, I'm building a 64 plymouth and I am interested in the NSS class. Here in Michigan they run at Milan and another track on the west side of the state. I grew up at detroit dragway watching these types of cars running every weekend. Bob Ford, royal pontiac, ramchargers, golden commandos, and color me gone, etc. Thats is why I have one now.

Nice setup Action. i'll bet you that setup is quicker than an offset version.
With an offset version there is one corner jet that needs to be real lean. like 8 sizes smaller to get the proper O2.
i just found the paperwork on my edelbrock str-14 crossram jetting where i made the most power. I got the setup with edelbrock heads to runa best of 11.08 at Etown years ago.
Thats when i was a real slowpoke but it was a stepping stone and a learning curve.:headbang:

Thats nice ! Who makes that intake ? ? I saw that new Indy intake on a Super Bee this weekend and it was the one that you can put a 6pk on or 2 fours or a single four. This guy had the 6pk on it and I dont remember the name Indy gave it but its a pretty new intake. I was really liking that intake and thought I may consider it down the road. Ron

 

[actionange1]

That's an Edelbrock STR with a custom made top by my engine guy. Hard to find dual inline for this intake. Can find them all the time with the single carb top.
Then had a filler plate welded at front and rear edge to eliminate using tray under the manifold when installed. Just use sealer and intake side gaskets.

Here's how it looks installed.

here's a video of the nostalgia nationals at beaver springs 2010 FINALE.
THIS IS NSS RACING AT ITS BEST.even though i lost. thanks ACTION for finding this for me.

Your welcome.
NSS racers need to stick together and help promote the category. :headbang:
