Glenn's dragster thread

<< < (13/54) > >>

Frontenginedragsters:
 Try to remember guys and gals:
This engine was assembled and run as a single 4brl engine.
The blower was bolted on after a season of racing with a carburetor.
The engine was not gone thru and clearances not adjusted for blown alcohol racing.
It will be re-assembled with more clearance and the owner will now learn about pulling the pan once a month.

Sounds like you have all the issues covered Matt. I would also recommend a set of aluminum rods that would be easier on the crank when you step the blower speed up.
