Scott, I too can't wait to read the new book. How will you be distributing it?
Thanks for the encouragement Beater . . .
integrated - the particulars of the build have been discussed on several different posts here over the years. Most of them in Bench Racing . . .
Here's a quick summary:
'49 block bored .030 over with custom pistons/pins by Ross and Hastings cm rings.
NOS Hi-Torque crank from '52 with stock journals recently polished and balanced
NOS war surplus head from '42 mildly ported and polished with particular attention to the exhaust ports.
Obscure Isky DP#2 spec cam reground by Delta Cams 247/264 - 204/232 @.050 (extended duration on exhaust lobe to promote scavenging).
Various valve train tricks from McGurk (inner springs/hold downs etc). I also have a set of Barker high lift rocker arms (not sure that I will use since cam is already lifting .41 and not sure about coil bind not to mention push rod canting/flexing).
Eddie Edmunds water heated two duece intake with twin Carter WCDs
Tube Headers with provisions to heat auto chokes
6 volt electrics with NOS '39 Delco #1110008 dizzy - preferred by Fisher because of advance curve. Modified with Harman Collins dual point conversion plate.
regards,
Keith
