Re: best timing setup BBC

Re: 6.135 rod with 4.600 bore bbc
My preference would be a 6.535 rod which I think has shelf pistons available to fit. Just my .02 cents worth. I would not waste time and money on the combo with stock rods.

Get intouch with Bob Szabo . Google search Racecarbookbob and his contact info should pop up . He had a lot of schematics and pictures when he was publishing his books.

The stiffer sidewall tires are normally quite a bit heavier. Affects static weight and rotational mass during acceleration. This could cause a change in ET

Re: Intake Manifold Porting Show ‘n Tell
