Default Ouch !

Hey Colin,
that is bad luck, too bad the machinist didn't measure 2 times before cutting the deck. Hope he is bucking up and fixing it for you. With that much spray you'll need extra ring gap clearance unless you're using the gapless rings.
That is a a great run on 1 stage ! 400 HP !
Just got back from Mission today, lots of quick stuff.
526 in an old truck with 4 stages of nos.
672 with 2 stages, ran in the 7.20's @ 180.
Keep us up on your build.

Marshall, good to hear from you.Keeping the roadster rumbling? I've been out of the loop on the cobra runs, sold the roadster and am building a Daytona cobra coupe now. Lots of fun so far. Not sure about the other guys plans, maybe ask Fred or Jake.
Perry.
