I race at Cecil during the Street Car Shooutout monthly series which runs April through November.[/QUOTE] Thanks. I was just wondering what else that car could be used for. Of course, I don't follow much, besides NHRA S/SS and a bit of Comp now that we have a team member involved ;-)

Re: 8.50 index build
The next project was to build headers. Did everything I could to get out of having to build them myself, but in the end I had to force myself to do it. Hated every minute of it except the welding.
One side tacked in place... Simple fixture I made to hole the collectors in place. |

Re: 8.50 index build
Beautiful workmanship. Just curious what brand of welder you use at home?
