Martin June 14-15 2013 Fast /Pure Stock Shootout ?

Go with the Gasser look. Besides, look at it as good weight transfer with the bow rising in the water. uzzled:

 

Hi Tim,

Can't wait to see the blue Chevelle. Hope you get the springs sorted quickly.

Can't make Martin, need to wait till September

Ryan

PS: What transmission did you go with? TH400 Column Auto?

 

Tim,

I just checked with Greg and we cannot remember what Springs we Put in that front end.....I too would have done exactly with what you ordered....a small block spring (with the lightened weight of the L89 and all the other goodies on that car).....I am running the six cylinder springs on my Frost Green 300 Deluxe Post Sedan, but I am after something totally different. We have been down that road with Moog.....their system can be a joke.....I have not had good luck with them. Your best bet is to call them and tell them your issues....they may want to know the weight of the car?

Good luck,

 

I think we're all going to want to know the weight of that car:laugh:

 

That is exactly why I left that up to Tim.....and I did not disclose any weight of that awesome car.....You all do know that a Post Sedan is a lighter Chevelle than a Coupe.....Not my first Rodeo :Brow:

Dan

 

Small block springs and it is sky high.........maybe no seam sealer used in this one?:Brow: Is it a 135 13427?uzzled:

Ryan

13427 shipping weight 3165, curb weight 3265
13637 shipping weight 3230, curb weight 3335

Post Sedan should be 100lbs lighter (shipping weight) or 70 lbs lighter (curb weight) (but these numbers need all the optional factors added or deleted,like a 396, etc.)

 

But that's how they used to do it.

 

Come on guy's ---- It's not that the car is an air pillow!!!!! Besides it's not nice to talk about a pretty girls weight!!!
Looked up the moog 6330 springs- supposedly they are the spring all the way from 6cyl- thru 396 iron head coupe!!!! Grrrrrr no wonder they are sitting in the air !!! :af: Moog has stream lined there aplications for less part #'s..

WILL be going to Eaton detroit spring Tommorrow they show every different application.:TU:

 

If that thing is as light, or lighter than McDowells small block 300 deluxe was, it is going to be lethal.:eek2:

 

..

 

Oh, I guaranty IT WILL BE! :TU:

I drove my car to work on Thursday and then to Martin. When I got done working, this is what greeted me. The birds had been full of berries.
Then last night was 50 miles from home and lost a rocker arm.

 

Very cool, Lon. Congratulations to her. :grin: BP

 

THANKS!
Very proud of all my kids - Alyssa in WY is a DOT officer and working towards an accounting degree in Agri-business, Jeff graduated and heads this week to join the Army as a forward specialist - looking to be a sniper. If not that then an Apache helicopter mechanic then pilot is his last 2 years. Collin stepped up his grades in the last half so he can stay on the soccer and shotgun teams. Angelle has already headed to New Mexico, had some great business's/organization's/individual's step up and sponsor about half of the cost of the trip so we could afford her to go. She also graduated from the 6th grade with a Presidents Award for Academic Excellence, top in the school district in a state math competition, 3rd in district 24 math competition and numerous track awards.
