« on: September 15, 2021, 01:31:59 PM »
hello i planning this winter to uppgrade from a powerglide to direct drive with a crowerglide . is there any place i can read or get info about witch type crowerglide clutch i need to use. engine is a blown alcohol bbc KB olds solid block .dart 380 solid heads titan valves and td rocker arms. 14/71 littlifield blower. 4,5"bore 4,15" stroke. lunati blower cam 4000-8000rpm.super mag 3. no tacometer or rpm switch.about 1700-2000hp i think. 33x10,5x15 wheel and 3.78 in rear end.fed with driver is about 1892 lb. 153" wheelbase.
best et is 1/4 8 6,81 at 205 mph.
fed makes good long burnout, but i have big problem to hold full trottle all the way down the track,tire shake-wheelie to 1/8 mile and so on. so i think a uppgrade to crowerglide clutch and direct drive will make the fed more "easey" stable to drive.
thank for all info
best regard arne christer kallevik from norway
