I love the mechanical violence of the stickshift, and its just too much fun rowing my own gears down the strip. This season should be a blast with the new engine setup, and the race Nash 5spd, it will be nice to flat foot powershift this thing and not worry about missing a gear. It is just gonna be tough to let out after the 1/8th untill I get a bar in it.

I have always loved stick shifts, but I have never had one set up to take a full out thrashing. I would love to drive one that is. I has to be maximum fun.

Good power, local buddy made similar out of a 6.0L with some touched up heads, then we sprayed a lot at it. Wow what a ride! Ports on the L92 vic jr are large just like the super vic for cathedral ports, its nothing like the cathedral vic jr. Should move out nicely, can't wait to hear ET and mph

Congrats man, Makes me super anxious to get my motor in the car since we have a similar setup other than the cams. Do you think you would gain anything with a bigger carb?
