Don Terrill’s Speed-Talk

A low power 302, you could just get a 305 or better still a 307.

It will at least be more important than the resonance.

Furnace cement isn't it ?

? I know we have to have the PRP move air around a turn, and that it has to be there, but what if that air is already slower and can make the turn easier than a well flowing induction system? Usually the answer to opening up the pinch would be NO. Its going to kill your lower end tq and so forth Hu...

120" wheel base that is.

Looks like an easy job, just not making too much mess is the actual challenge.

Save the thick gaskets for a last resort. Don't use studs and you can change them in the car if you get that desperate.

Stroked Windsor with a single plane and a decent size cam, should get by, don't put a dual plane or a long runner efi manifold on it.

Why not soften the chambers and then it'll be ready for a shot of nitrous as well.

My guess Tom 4750lb.......

Close.

Although this is with 200lb of driver.

Ok, well in the pics ( video may show a different story) the carvis coming up even. So something is already preventing roll.

I want to put an anti roll on there. The differential isn't right, too tight, the front brakes drag, and a good trans would finish the project, then we would have something. But you know I like the car and the smooth idle, its a nice change, I think we got a decent back up race car when the other c...

Next the rear suspension will have to be addressed. Any details here you care to share? I see a wheels up launch so there's something going on that's peaked my 3rd gen Camaro interest!

Does it need to go on a diet?

Nah, just get to optimise your wheel weights for best launch.

Did you manage any A to B testing with the Progressive compared your best results ignition-wise? This came back to me while watching this 406 dyno test on the Unity MotorSports Garage channel. If you do/have seen it, what are your thoughts on the results? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MMCnP8570U...
