Great job!

Didn't get there as me and the boys were putting up a shed to make room in the garage. The Demon is almost ready so we'll be seeing you soon.

 

Looks good, what were your 60ft times?

 

Sounds like a good day out...

 

1.6 1.7 .. i double check the slips when i get home.

 

looking foward to it..

 

 

 

As unpopular as the Volare/Aspens are I've always liked them. I saw an article in Car Craft about 1980, where a guy put a 440/727 and a B body Dana in a Volare and ran mid 10s. I put mine together in the mid 80s.


Yours looks like its working well as a package, what rear springs and shocks are you using, axel 8 1/4 or 8 3/4?

 

its an 8 3/4 with 456's
just a stock shock and leaf spring set up . .but im gonna change it up to a 50/50 shocks in the back and 90/10's in the front
also only running a mickey thompson drag radial

 

Shop around, you may find some double adjustable shocks for a reasonable price.

ie Viking (http://www.vi-king.com/) , Penske , etc.

 

I started to do something like that, 77 RR Was collecting parts Had motor,trans car Already had a 8 3/4 & SS springs Ran out of funds.Should have kept it. Ended up with a 67 Coronet for a while..
