clone Posted December 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Believe the motor let go at the Fall track day at Dragway42 Push rod broke and jammed roller lifter in bore then link broke and 2nd lifter bent that push rod and damaged rocker.. It had no cam damage or bearing problems. We are adding new intake valves replacing the two lifters that broke and the rocker. Trend push rods. .020 off the deck and .070 off the heads to raise the compression to 13.1 and retune it. The engine builder estimates 825+ HP when down.

clone Posted December 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 60 ft has been the big problem. I am looking at a new full race 727 with a transbrake that should help solve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 69 Dart chassis car with a 440 .060 over with max wedge heads. I was young and dumb and sold my 70 'Cuda AAR car originally a 340 4spd plum crazy purple car.

I was young and dumb and sold my 70 'Cuda AAR car originally a 340 4spd plum crazy purple car. The 70 AAR Cuda's are very valuable now. Mine is a 73 and now they are becoming hard to buy and expensive. Plum Crazy was a bad ass color and one I considered but in the end I went with B5 blue.
