NO real street cars run on pumpgas :P
This year I set my engine to 9.5:1 c/r. No ping and its hopefully gonna run cooler.
-
So? Did you get the trac. bar on, or do you still need a trained tech to come over and give you a hand?! :P
So I assume your happy with the new combo so far.

Looks good Alan can't wait to hear it this summer how much for a short ride I pay for the gas :)

your lack of a comma makes that read completly opposite of your real meaning, me thinks.
\"NO [comma] real street cars run on pumpgas\"

Thanks Shane... actually my car is ugly and I'm very pleased with the \"unique\" look :P
All talk without timeslips but the car does feel completely different. Revised Kroc firebreathers ;) I'm liking it!!!
-
Looks great Alan!
Props to you or any other large motored aircooler that actually has a street car on pump gas. I'm not talking about a car that just has registration to run on the street, but someone that can be spotted driving the car around almost daily in the summer months.

Do you think it will be easier or harder to get it to pass aircare this time?

Don't quote me on it but I'm 99% sure the car went through air care last weekend and passed. :rolleyes:

Tom your probably fortunate of getting race fuel from a \"pump\" at the gas station ^_^ your a lucky guy!!!!
I guess will all fairness you can use a \"mechanical hand pump\" to get race gas \"pumpgas\" from a barrel :lol:
With the honed 0.005 AA cylinders and grant rings my AA forged setup virtually has NO blowby even on the first day of driving. I had quite a bit of fine \"spit\" of oil behind the crank pulley (CE brand new). NOW its almost completely solved my brutal problem I had.
My 2nd Total seal rings with Cimas spit oil everywhere for the longest time (rings are now in Krocs garbage can!!!) then my out of spec AA cylinders with grant cast rings spit less. NOW professionally honed cylinders has \"almost\" no spit of fine oil even after 7000+ shifts. Strokers is not uncommon for a little oil behind the crank pulley but i can complain 1 bit.
A little more jetting and I'm good to go for the season.
Hey Paul get your ass in gear!!! I think she pulls alot harder this year. We'll see.
-
That'a good to hear about the AAs, I have a set chilling on a shelf with all the same specs as your's. Total Seals blow, literally. The split's engine is running AAs in Cimas at .0045. Need a case and cam for that other engine....
There is a station here that has 100, 110, & 116, and no barrel pumps B)
remember, I have a dedicated street car, and one \"street car\" for the coffee shop run :rockon:
real street cars have a licsense plate :o :lol: :lol: :lol: .
