Attn 396, 375hp iron head racers

GENE BUELL · 06-20-2008, 05:06 PM

I guess only a few 396 guys actually have a RACE CAR. It's not like trying to negitiate a tough course here, stage the car, matt it to the floor, let AHFS do the rest. Quit lifting and RACE the car! Sorry, AHFS just PO's me.

Welcome to the club, AHFS sucks!

Did Richards save the combo when he put his car in "SLUG" mode?

Jim Cimarolli · 06-22-2008, 11:34 AM

Thats what I'm trying to find out Larry. From what Mark Faul originally posted on here was that we needed one run in A/SA that would be slower than .83 under to dodge a hp. hit. But Mark hasn't replied.

I believe that what Gary Richard ran in E-Town should have saved the iron head from getting horsepower to offset the one race "average" in A that Clark had in Pomona
Thank you Gary for running your C car in A! And thank you Dave for making Gary aware of the problem, also with your victory in SS!

The "powers that be" can and do read this. They understand what some people are forced to do in order to protect a combination.

Sorry clutch man, just spoke to Wesley. Iron head is safe at this first half adjustment.

Jim Cassels · 06-23-2008, 03:44 PM

Mark,
Any feedback from Wesley on the alum. head?
Thanks Jim.

Jim, He told me the aluminum head would be getting an adjustment. He didn't give numbers, but I would guess 5hp. There were too many fast runs to save it this late in the first half. We should have thought of this plan earlier.
