Got brakes!! Finally finished putting the rears back together. Ended up using the NAPA wheel cylinder brackets... they are nice! Drill two holes per side, bolt the brackets over the wheel cylinders, and they aren't going anywhere...
Finally made it out to the track... turns out they were having technical difficulties due to recent storms. At first the only thing that worked was the tree. Car felt stronger-pulled all the way to the end instead of levelling off in third. After a while they were able to get the "scoreboards"working on the left lane so you could have a friend watch your e.t. when you ran. My first run "on the clock" was a 14.3 :lol: by the time I left I was running 14.2's. I will post a video soon...
Got better heads! Smaller chambers, bigger valves. Gotta put valve seals in them, and I'm gonna try to come up with a cam to put in when its apart... Winter/spring project...
