Bullrun

[FoxGranadaChuck]

Ha ha I love this show. Just finished watching it. Was very happy with the outcome. The matchup of the challenge was interesting as I really thought it woul be ford vs lotus.

It will be fun watching Mr. Angry display the roots of his name next week



The exhaust header making the car die was also making me scratch my head wtf? The way the car started back up sounded more like it was flooded.

That was what I thought also.

I have no idea what compression Mike is running is his 440, but I could see lack of back pressure causing the engine not to run.

Now it's no comparisson by any means to Mike's beautiful car but i had a 79 Olds Cutlass years ago with a 305 chevy in it. My buddy and I were ditching the stock manifolds for a set of Hookers. For **** and giggles once the manifolds were off we decided to start the engine with just bare cyclinder heads. It took alot to get it started and then wouldn't idle at all unless the gas pedal was pushed in almost all the way. But it was cool. It went from grandma car to NASCAR within 30 minutes of bolt turn.......just didn't run like one.

So I could see a motor not wanting to run with 4 out of 8 cyclinders having zero back pressure.

and after trying to start it for a little while with no result yeah the carb probalbly was flooded.

But what do I know? .......maybe Mr Angry will chirp in here and tell us all how it was.

Your 305 would have run closer to NASCAR if it had a pair of Enginequest Vortec heads and a good Comp Cams cam. Steve Dulcich ran such a beast several months ago and got aroun 365 hp!

Just a little off the beaten path.....

I hate to sound like Bill Clinton, but I feel your pain man! I had a little bit of a difficulty getting cable internet service when I recently moved.
