bummer about the rear Bob-i didnt make the 14 hour trip, the wife was sick
i did get the new stroker in the chevelle, the EPP cam pulls down 13-14 " of vacume at idle, with the carb, better than i hoped for, gotta tune in the new carb, but its an animal, lol

Thanks, we appreciate it!
We are, I took the center section out of the car yesterday and we dropped it off at Moser yesterday afternoon.
I'm glad to see the cam is working better than you thought it would, that is great! Thanks. Bob

Interesting. What is a Wave Trak? So how does a locker react in a 6 sp car with that much power Bob? I'd be worried it would unlock & lock back up every time you shift making the car hard to keep straight.....unless you're power shifting.

The locker can indeed lock and unlock when shifting, we didn't notice a problem with it in this GTO at all, but I do know that it can happen. Bob

We got this GTO back together with a Wavetrac. The car turns so much easier than it did with the locker, it made a huge difference. We decided to take the car to our local track last night. Brent ran the car as I have a pinched nerve in my neck. He came out at 4000 on the first run and it hooked so hard it bogged. It went a 2.?? 60 ft, granny shifted it to a 11.30 or so at 134 mph on that run with the blower belt slipping. We tightened down the blower belt and Brent went back to the line for his 2nd run and came out at 6000 rpm. Keep in mind this 809 rwhp GTO has a Moser M9 with a Wavetrac, 3.50 gears now and a torque arm, with M/T 325/50R15's. Something broke in the built 6 speed trans, car doesn't move in any gear.... Oh, did I mention I drove this GTO to the track... We needed to get break in miles on the drivetrain. We're picking it up today. This car desperately needs a 4L80E transmission. We can tell this new rear is going to work great, even with the stock front suspension! Bob

if it goes with the 4l80e dont forget the rossler trans brake ,and a probably a yank converter something like the py3600. sucks that the car hasnt made a clean pass yet,i know the feeling.good luck though

Bob, glad to hear Rodney from RPM is picking the car up for you from Muncie. They are a class act.

I'm glad to hear you guys got the car back together, but what happened to the tube chassis Goat with the F3R????
I was looking for it on your website and couldn't seem to find it, maybe I overlooked it.
