hey---I bored them with a wik Way rm 100---haven't used it for years---if it is still out by the old shop, you can have it--I'll check in a few days, get back to you

It would bore the pin end and you could set up so as to do whole set same lenth. I used it mainly to alter lengths by off set bushing

Sorry I forgot

Scooter I have some Idea's On a Few Grinds . I am sure with that T-Ram and one of these Camshaft Pick's your car will run High 11's . Yes even with them Old Iron Fuelly Heads .

I wandered what that was, but then I saw the 392 in the 34---I'm planning on doing a 392 and a flathead and switch them back and forth---paint and upholstery costs too much to have 2 cars

In the Late 70's Did most of my Drag Racing at union Grove Track in Wis . Early 80s Also ran at US-30 and Byron . I most Likely Know you . As for the 9.50 Monza . I would say in 1977-78 Them Monzas where just starting to be Built into Po-Cars . I Remember some High 9's Vega's . Back then if you had a 10 Sec Bracket Car that was Fast . I never thought we would have the Speed Parts that we do have today . I do think in the early 80's Ford gave Drag Racing a Kick Start with it's 5.0 GT Mustang . Every one and there Brother Had one . And they where Racing them .

I don't have mine for race setup, street only and once setup... is a lot of fun! and its Offenhauser 360

They friggin ROCK! Don't buy into that Urban Legend crap about them not working on the street, that's a bunch of hooie. I'm far from being a NASCAR mechanic and if I can make them work anyone can. I ran one back in the 70's and that's what I have on both cars now. Two 600 Eddies on the 32 and two 500s on the 62.
