Hopefully got 1 ready for the Bash
I dusted off Ole "Killer" and put a new set of slicks on it.....See how it likes these hoosiers? Still workin on Tweetybird ,hope fully have it lined out by the Bash.I'd hate to have to win both classes with the same car

Throw it in there Harold, if the converter snout is smaller than the crank,it will work fine,it's the other way around that bites you in the ass.

Re: Hopefully got 1 ready for the Bash
Looks like Tweetybird is probably gonna be a no-go for the Bash . Got a split running down the #2 cylinder wall about 3" long..gonna be pushing it to have back together in time.

Re: Hopefully got 1 ready for the Bash
Sorry to hear about your bad luck Dan, I know what it feels like! My "Money Pit" is White and it's at Team Z for at least 3 weeks getting some chassis issues fixed. Broken shock mount, bent sway bar, install new relocated upper control arms and scale and set up the chassis, etc. His shops full and the backlog means that my car will have to wait it's turn. Dave Zimmerman really knows how to make these stock suspension cars work, too bad it costs so much $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$! Even if it was done before the bash, I'm going to be broke!
