  1. pull out the spark plug on #4, pour in half a cup of nitromethane, reinstall the plug . make sure the rocker arms are off and hit the starter. Do the same for #5 and both heads will come off.
  2. Lets see ...............How about a 8 second time slip ............
  3. good eye dr hunt. looks like the valves hung in the guides.
  4. Found some top end photos. http://www.metalshapers.org/nitrogeezers/Good%20Guys%20Finals%2004_accidents.htm scroll down to the second set.
  5. Make sure your ground is good and your battery has a full charge.
  6. couldn't resist, not often that you are asked to shoot someone
  7. He already has a 3600 rpm converter and he says it seams slow. I say go with a looser converter. My first Z I took draging was a low compression 350, 8.5 comp, 1 5/8 headers 750 dp holley with a 5500 stall converter, it ran 10.90's with a 26X8.5X14 slick. That was with a TH350 trans. with a 3500 converter it was a slug, like pulling a skier out of the water with a old 25 horse evenrude out board. Call Coan and get a 8" converter for it and wake it up.
  8. how much duration at .050 on the cam?
  9. come on Dr. Hunt, you're pretty good with a computer, go to the add and make the pictures appear here. I'm not a computer guy, just an old Toyota mechanic, I'm lucky to find my way here from time to time.
  10. Drag z car on racing junk. Ad #715193 .
  11. Well, I just can't go along with the, kick Comp Cams, group here. I have used their cams and lifters for years with no problems.Keep a eye on your valve lash and spring pressure and you are not going to have a problem. I had them grind my last custom grind cam and it checked out perfect. Give them the lobe profile you want with the LSA and base circle and no problem. You need to make sure things are right when you are putting it together just not bolt it in and go. Check for spring bind, retainer to guide clearance, installed height, get the right length push rod, check for binding. Degree the cam in with accurate equipment, and double check everything.
  12. Just checked, no shows between 11-27 through 12-14.
  13. Valley of fire is amazing as well as Zion National park. We just got back today from Vegas, 30 years of wedded blis on the 5th. What are the dates in December you are going to be there? I will check on the Love show.
  14. Was in Vegas this week and saw Love at the Mirage. WOW what a show. If you like the Beatles see this show.
  15. big pulley on the crank, little pulley on the blower, activate the nitrous, no controller, with the release of the trans brake and hold on. Going to go or blow was the old saying.
  16. When you are riding pretend you are invisable. People look right at you and pull out. My bike riding days are gone for now. Had a 72 H2 750 kaw. RD 350's RD 400's RZ 350, GS 1100 suz. all gone now. Got my father in laws old 1943 45 Harley flat head. old 50's custom I need to get down here. Will probable just use it to putt around town on a Sunday morning when there isn't too much trafic. Be carefull, don't need to lose a Z car guy.
  17. Kill the wabbit, kill the wabbit. I like it.
  18. Dr. Hunt is right, it won't work. I don't know if you have a seperate fuel supply for the nitrous but you can run the nitrous with alky. I know guys running alky with nitrous and using alky instead of gas with the nitrous so I guess you could run the engine on gas and use alky in the nitrous system. I would just spray more nitrous when the weather got hotter.
  19. What brand and size slick do you run? M/T Hoosier, Goodyear ?
  20. stick, with a r180. Maybe a 3.36 rear gear with a 26X8.5X14 slick?
