We'll as you all know I installed that other cam and wasn't too impressed with it as it put my car out of its power range ,but on the recommendation of Mr.Hand I reset my centerline to 106 instead of 108 1/2 and installed rhodes lifters...I didnt take it out to the track or anything ,but I did take it around the block ...Roads were wet so couldnt get a good feel but all I can say is wow!!! It idles now with 14 inches in drive where before it had between 10-8 inches!And it feels much more responsive!!!I can hardly wait to try her for a full run!! http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...on_biggrin.gif
Thanks Jim!!! |

I'm almost 11's with that grind (2802) right? I'm 1100 lbs less than you are. You'll be 12's.

Hey Doug its the wolverine 1096 same specs as your 1175 ,112 LSA, 2802 is 114....12's hmmmmmm maybe some day once I get it all figured out,lol.....I think I will need the stall loosened up to about 2600 or so then it should be a romper http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...on_biggrin.gif Did you get your problem figured out?

Darby, I went my fastest with a stock converter. The rhodes should give you pretty good bottom end to launch the "Titanic". http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...on_biggrin.gif
Don't know if I have the problem solved yet, but I did set the engine back in the engine bay this weekend and am going there today to bolt it all up and get it running. Can't help thinking that it's a fuel problem that caused detonation. Good luck going low low 13's. |
And I had to hear about here on the forum... no e-mails about how excited you were....LOL.. Just kidding, Grand!! Glad to hear that you are happy now... had me worried a for awhile there! Jim
