G,day from Australia
« on: April 13, 2015, 07:24:54 AM »
My name is Glen and I am from melbourne Australia, here are a few pic's of my unfinshed ride. It's a 105 inch moly tube Topolino altered powered by a blown / injected 392 hemi, powerglide, floater 9 inch rear. Started project with a rolling 125 inch mark Williams chassis ( was injected small block 9 sec car ). All mods / fabrication done by myself in home shed, project is about 12 months away from testing - should be mid 7 sec ride if all goes well, hope you like. Glen

Chassie tune advice----Equal pressure in rear tires, jack up the front at the torsion and make sure the left front spindle is at least 1/4" lower than the right.
