  1. Hay Yo put a vacuum gauge on the motor so you can figure out which power valve you need i think thats the biggest problem . light throdle issues and transition from idle to wide open hickups

  2. Rodney….Trust me, you will learn to love that clutch tamer…

    It takes a bit to get it figured out but once you do…Oh Boy…Look out !!!

    I love mine…It also helps with the shock loads on the drive train.

    You will probably need to take out the shims you have on the clutch now.

    Grant has a pretty good write up on his website on how to use it.

    He's a pretty smart fellow and used to be pretty easy to get a hold of and give you pointers on how to get the best out of it.

    I got mine many, many moons ago…I would really like to try out his new hydraulic one.

    I hear it's badass.

  3. With my car i launch at 2000, when i stab the throttle theres no bog its all bizness, more powa equalls more torque, id say thats y lots of peps dont launch at redline

  4. Heard dyno day is now the 12th. What are the odds/possibilities you guys are going to the track the following day? Just wondering if I want to bring my drag wheels with me if I can possibly swing staying up there an extra day.

  5. I don’t think fiddling with the clutch is the way to address the issue. When you have a bad leave, it’s usually from blowing the tires off in the first foot of travel. I’d address that with more control arm angle. If you can lower the rear attachment point it would give more initial bite. Since you’re not running a ton of power, the drawback of less traction afterwards shouldn’t be a problem. I guess a watts link isn’t in the budget but a panhard bar would help as well and they don’t cost much.

  6. My friend do you like cheesecake? I would like to send you a sampling box of my finest cheesecake. This is a new business for me and I would Ike to show you my appreciation for all your thoughts and prayers through my health issues and for all the countless hours of entertainment and Inspiration
