Re: Nova stocker project.
Went to a Coan TH350 w/low gearset last year. I've not noticed a performance difference between the two, but I sure am liking the durability of the TH350 so far.

Re: Nova stocker project.
Probably time for an update.
Went -.89 under twice this season (Earlville, Iowa and Kearney, Ne.) and -.88 under at Rock Falls, Wi. Camshaft had some hurt lobes when it came apart so Matt Steen and Jason Verke at Victory Engines are once again rubbing on stuff. We'll go back to the dyno after the pieces get back and are reassembled.

Re: Nova stocker project.
Good that you found those problems early.
Looking forward to those dyno sheets.

Re: Nova stocker project.
What lifter are you using and how crazy is the spring pressure?

Re: Nova stocker project.
tell us what you found out about the spots on the cam lobes. I had the same thing happen on two different engines and got all kinds of reason's for it happening but nothing definite. Oil, spring pressure,lifters etc... etc. Sure would be nice to know for sure what caused it.

Re: Nova stocker project.
Alan
You should think about running the Stock Super Stock combo races @ Bandimere. There will be several G/SA cars there, so your Chevy will feel right at home. Denver's cars are usually fast so you'll have good cars to compare to. |
