    Ideal number 3001 to save NHRA Pro Stock

    PS truthfully was subsidized by GM for many years. The cost of this for the class is finally showing itself. Ten years ago, GM's involvement would help out the 'little' guy. Maybe it was only a block or a front end however that was money that allowed them to attend a couple of races. Now that GM...

    Non competes are worth less than the paper used to produce the document most of the time. Where do you think Edwards got his employees? I bet they weren't greeters at Walmart and Edwards taught them how to machine blocks, port heads and run the dyno. Employees moving around happens...

    Valve Springs and Reducing Costs

    Just speculating since you can't compress liquid you would need to have the hydraulic system psi equal to atleast the max lift psi desired for when at max lift. With the air system and two regulators, one for seat and the other for max pressure, when the volume of the chamber is sized correctly...

    And Mike Edwards stole technology from the team that his employees worked for before Mike. It happens every day in all forms of business, not just racing.

    Valve Springs and Reducing Costs

    See link below. It would cost around $4800 per motor for the air cylinders. Thats only if you make them in small batches. The two pressure regulators are around $100 a piece. Then say another $1000 in plumbing plus an air tank. Pretty cheap really. WJ made them a while ago, mid 90's...

    EFI on a 400ci aussie pro spec type engine

    Jump on the grenade, it will take you some work but be worthwhile. You will hear from carb 'experts' that carbs are just as fast as EFI. They don't mention that practically everyone that is using EFI is still just at the start of the R&D process. Give it a year or two and EFI will be blowing...

    Tire Shake

    Awhile ago I worked with KJ on hiis car. If I remember correctly, 2001-2003. The car would either haul ass or shake the tires. We would joke the car was shaking its tires unloading it off the trailer. Mid season we got a pretty good handle on the chassis. We knew for a while where we needed to...

    Cylinder head issues at Englistown ?

    I heard that is was because the heads were cast in a nitrous oxide atmosphere. During the casting process the mold is set in a chamber that is filled with N20. When the engine warms up the N20 is released into the intake ports. Consequently it was obvious something was up when the questioned...
