Bob,
thank you for he quick answer- I had transfer it to my customer and I am waiting for his answer.
Here are some pictures of my ´62 Plymouth Fury. The power of the engine in this car is really awesome and brutal.
But there was a little bit tuning and repair necessary to make it durable (headgaskets, sparkplugs, ignition timing).
On my first excursion on the ¼ mile the car runs on BF Goodrich Drag Radial T/A street tires on normal street asphalt pavement
(not prepared with rubber, glue or track bite) 10.6 sec. with lousy 60 feet times.
I reved the engine only to 6200 RPM because I had no main girdle at this time to fasten the main caps in the block, so I was a little bit angry.
The exhaust is way too small: 1 ¾” headers and 3” tubes- I will work on it in future!
I feel potential in the high 9 sec. on street pavement and good slicks.
For sure all engine-,transmission-, chassis building and so on was done by myself and it is fully street drivable.
Here are the major components:
- 493 ci RB Stroker with 8.5:1 Comp.Ratio
