dwc43 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Looks good. Like the fuel log too. Next time, just move the lines out to the ends of the fuel bowls. He was an owner/op with the heart and drive of a champion. Alan deserved that trophy. Too bad he along with many others were taken wayyy to early in there life time. I would have loved to see if Adam could have matched the King in some way. Too many to list that was taken way to early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Allan was a great driver one of the best in the 80 - 90´s era he deserved more championship´s the only he obtain si in the 1992 season. it´s a shame we lost a drive who could do more in the NASCAR racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwc43 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Welcome, anytime. I've built enough real ones and plastic ones to know where most of it goes. LOL!! Yep, Awesome Bill took the win, but Alan led more laps that day to take the Championship, and it came about after Ervin took out Davey Allison early in the race.

So you work or worked on a Race Shop or in a Nascar team? or just for hobby. So the line that come´s to the carburator fit´s in that bowl that is in the fire wall? and then the line goes to the fuel pomp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the line that come´s to the carburator fit´s in that bowl that is in the fire wall? and then the line goes to the fuel pomp? The line to the fire wall goes to the fuel pressure gauge on the dash. The two small lines off the logs go to the side of the raised end on the fuel bowl. You got the angle right, just need to be on the end of the bowl. And you got the other end to the fuel pump. You can see in that pic where the fuel line goes on the the left side of the pic. I started out drag racing as a kid and went to DIRT for several years and then moved to the NASCAR G.N Sportsman Div. Still build any kind of race car you want in the shop if you have the cash and still race my old cars too. Atlanta is as rough as a number 2 wash board and Disney Speedway is a fun short track to run on at around 150. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwc43 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Sorry, my bad. That is the rear bowl. Line goes on the right side of the pic. You can see the threads in it. No threads on the other side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmmendezl19 Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 That's amaizing I wll love to have your job!! I live on Mexico City but I am a great fan of NASCAR since I have memory. Here in Mexico we have the NASCAR Corona Series but the car are much as ARCA and I partially work with a team as spotter when the need me. I am Jose my email is jango_feet_19@hotmail.com would be great if we still in touch. If you can send me a picture of the real connection that we are talking should be wonderful I really appreciate that. Greetings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwc43 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 I thought I'd throw it on here in case someone else wants it for reference. But we can stay in touch. You'll notice in that last pic the fuel pump has been moved. That's to keep from knocking it off in case of a wreck on the right front. Chevy's were bad about catching fire when the frame was damaged and knocked the fuel pump off the engine. How about one of the Dodges on the dyno in person. Over 700 hp and almost 9000 rpm. Enjoy.

dwc43 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Sorry is jango_fett_19@hotmail.com I'll send ya an e mail. IF you notice though, I'm a Dodge man. And the black car is an Aspen R/T and the one on the trailer is a Plymouth Road Runner. My brother and I practically built the Road Runner in 60 days including hauling the hulled out body home. It got a new engine and trans, but everything that was usable came back out of the black car except the new roll cage. Black car was totaled one night.
