Went to the track lsat night and damn if I didn't end up on the trailer again. I either blew the head or intake gasket on my 385 sbc. I was way down on power, first hint!

 

I ran 11.79 at 114, normally on my old motor I would run 11.30's or 11.40's at 120-122mph. My last pass scare the pooh out of me. At half track my windshield became misted over with a nice coat of coolant! Try seeing the track at 90 mph like that...pucker facter. To make matters worse the car got real squirrelly as coolant may have found their way to my drag radials.

 

That run was compounded by a serious *** whopping by a 1971 Nova big block on the juice that went 10.10 at 120. Mine stumbled home to a 12.20 at 114.

 

Back to the tear down phase again.
