  1. hey meyers. is this legit question? or are you, just being you? if it's a legit question, i'll give you a legit answer. D.W. as far off as your as your answer is, i'd expect some fit throwing. drag radials go as large as 33x 14.5. record is a 3.70 something in the 1/8 mile. you're definition of serious racer is highly questionable. no sense in talking technical here as it makes no sense to waste time.
  2. you are an incredible talent tim. i'm definitely looking forward to friday. hoping we can put one of those babies under the car. that ......will be bitchin'!!!
  3. the top fuel limit is 500. the max limit on a gen 2 hemi is around 632 with an aftermarket iron block. 4.600 bore x 4.750 stroke. although on a blown application like this, i don't think you'd want to go over a 4.500 bore.
  4. thanks david!!!
  5. WOW!! i'm jealous!! those are beautiful!!!!
  6. lookin' good, tim. why is it........i'm getting excited over this? hehe.
  7. i didn't get a chance to say how nice these look jeff. nice job! hope you'll post a mock up of the 18x 3's and the rear wheels on the car.
  8. jeff, you did a fantastic job on those wheels! you've got the stance down pat. i can only image a blown 392 in there. i hope you get to finish her soon.......on the other hand, i know what it's like to have a few projects on the back log. hehe.
  9. WOW!!! tim, lookin' sexy there bro'.

  14. thanks Tom! it's been sitting for a while now but, i'm hoping to get some time soon to finish it. don't know if it's your cup"o'tea. i also have a 1/8 '32 salt flat style car i need to finish so, that's back on my radar.
  15. wing looks spot on tim!!! love the rivet details!!!!

  17. so,....i take it your "exhausted" search didn't get any actual dimensions?
  18. wing looks super, tim!!
  19. your 3d stuff looks great paul!!! that'll be the supercharged icing on the 481x cake.
  20. chris, so sorry to hear about your little mishap. you'll fix it....better than before. kinda like the six million dollar man!!!! you are old enough to remember him.....right?
  21. i have to keep reminding myself how small this really is tim. many larger scale builds (including mine) pale in comparison. love your work, buddy!!!!!!
  22. do you mean a puke tank like this?
  23. hey, tim! his stuff is just AMAZING. both form and function. i plan on getting one right after i plan on winning the lottery.....HEHE!! that manifold probably cost more than my engine! although we could look at 3-d printing a N/A tunnel ram.....hmmmmmmm.
  24. oh ye, of little faith. i see none on the car above either. actually, quite a few on here you can't SEE a license plate.
  25. happy thanksgiving to every one! paul, your 3-D cad skills will be infinitely useful in building your engine. i wish i had your talent. i hope you'll let me see some of your design efforts on your engine. oh, and yes, there are quite a few companies that do pressurized pin oiling on h-beam rods. carrillo and crower come to mind. i'm sure there are a ton more. saw this on visner's facebook. food for thought. leonard, how are you doing? i'm hoping to get a video made from IN the car very soon.....hint hint ! hehe.
