Zoomies or not ?

<< < (2/6) > >>

BK:
When I made the change on mine from zoomie to collector style. Performance was basically identical. It was late in the year so the reduction in et might have been the weather. Just a 100th or 2 quicker. The big difference was in the noise level. It was a lot quieter driving with the collector style. Also people didn't plug their ears during the burnout with the outlet down low.

Nice looking zoomies Bruce. Price isn't bad either.

Noise level is part of the show with our program. Our Nostalgia program is drawing spectators to the track. Our group ran 5 races at Central Illinois Dragway in 2014 and at every race the paid spectator count rose by the hundreds. The September Nostalgia race had 2000+ .

As for upswept headers ,IMO they ruin the looks of a FED. The down pointing collectors make a mess of everything around the car , especially at our track where sand can be a problem. George

This link should get you a FB pix of some of our racers: https://www.facebook.com/nostalgiaquickseries/photos/a.233855250140375.1073741828.233850123474221/285586724967227/?type=1&theater
