"Yup."

amazin what a difference that has made

get some slicks on now jim must surely run an 11,

thanks for the comments chaps

dunc, have been running slicks all year but running a 28" tall slick has not done me any favours running the previous 3.23,s

now the 3.73,s have woke it up a bit, running the 12.1 was first time out with them gears, so have had a few tweaks and will see what it runs this weekend, always runs better with much colder air

Hey Jim , you might just get lucky , ole Dave has a habit of bouncin them valves off there seats.

Yeah well I did win.

But only by a nose.

And the pushrods only failed later Adam.
