Exhaust with the 283-327 exhaust manifolds look period correct for this project. Edelbrock intake with the filler tube is right on. Are you going to paint the intake the same color as the block & valve covers? Sure would make that Edelbrock intake look more stock. :D Nice work, your getting...

Bob --- A 327 with old school parts will look right in place in this build. I think the steering setup goes well with the build.[cl[cl Floor bards & trans cover came out real nice. Are you going to run 283 or 327 valve covers and exhaust manifolds? :D:D:D

sc5080 -- Please see questions on Bob w (gonna build a dragster) for you about your T Altered. Thanks old28 Tom W [S[S[S

Bob w --- Just wanted to ask Sheets & Giggles a couple of questions on your thread, hope it is OK? S&G - How does that short wheel base altered handle on a 8.21 ET pass? - Is the car cage cert to 7.50 ET? - How wide & tall are the rear slicks? Thanks Tom

Bob w, See my reply to you on your thread "I'm Going TO Build A Dragster. Thanks old28.

Bob w, If you have taken off all the weight you can from the dragster thats it for weight. Good going. [cl[cl[cl I have thought right along that the cam you are running is very mild. I think you have a good handle on what changes need to be made to it. If the plugs still look rich got to go...

Bob w, did not hear back from you, do you think there is any more weight you can take out of the dragster? Like I posted " WEIGHT IS A KILLER OF ET " You can see what taking 225# off and a little carb modification has done for you ET [cl[cl[cl[cl Sure hope you put the pair of 600 carbs...

Well Bob, did the motor run leaner/cleaner with the power valves removed and pluged? From the 10.69 sounds like the jetting was right on. :D Remember what I posted in your thread a bit back. You have removed 225# from the dragster, if their is any way to remove a bit more you should do it...

Thanks Dave, is he running alcohol? Looks like a 7.50 ride if he is. :D Nice driving, 10.50 is just around the corner. I would call it a very good weekend. [cl

Well Bob, 0.3 ET of your best past best run [cl And that's why I am optimistic. 10.69 is getting real close to my mid 10.50 prediction. It may come next year with the 600 carbs and BlueNorther's setup. I know what that Ford 300 inline 6 can do, just takes a little more carb modifications to...

Bob w, Sorry to hear about your medical problems :mad: Ya I am very optimistic, that comes from keeping our dragster in the 7.50 week after week. You see what getting 250# off the car has done, now some carb changes to crisp up the motor & I am sure mid to low 10's is just around the corner...

Bob w, Best of luck this weekend. With the power valves plugged off & the jet change the bullet might have mid to low 10 in it. It sure should be running much cleaner.[cl[cl[cl

Bob w, I missed asking you if you were going to run plugs in the power valve hole? Trailer looks real nice. [;) When will you have the 600 carbs ready for a driveway test run? [cl Wish I could provide more carb information but I ran blowen & injected setups the last few years. I think you got...

Bob, Very interesting carb & power valve information. Please let use know how it runs with the new setup (driveway test).:D

BlueNorther, great carb information, but at this point I think Bob is tired of working on the bullet. It is my quess that they will stay with the two 750's and jet them up or down as needed. Dave said the setup was running on the rich side. It would be of some help if we new what the primary &...
