    Power Tour

    Memphis International Raceway, Grandson and I. Car didn't do well, one reason it went on the dyno in Birmingham. Course the trunk and back seat was full and my grandson was in the car.:)

    What Would It Take For 800 Horsies

    Thanks for the replies. Think I'll put this on hold for a while. Discovered a few things, on the Power Cruise that I want to fix. :oops: Nothing like a a 2700 mile cruise to put things in perspective.:) You know those little irritating things that after a while drive you crazy. Steve

    What Would It Take For 800 Horsies

    Thanks for all the info . It will take a while to make a decision. Leaning toward a cam and bigger blower, have a quiet one now and not sure I want the whine. Turbo sounds like starting over and is a little mysterious to me. In Bowling Green ky on my way to the Hot Rod Power tour...

    What Would It Take For 800 Horsies

    Drivetrain TKO 600 What to do

    speedo gear, beat to death yes but every search yields different answers

    I have 3.73 gears and a Speed Cal ... they work pretty well, the thing I don't like is in cruise, the speed jumps/adjusts and the car is has a slight jump as it corrects.
