Hey - I was wondering how your Gasser project was coming along? Any progress?

Hi!
Got your reply- Thanx for all the answers! I got a few more for you but I am running against the clock right now I am not the best at computer stuff myself.
Here is my yahoo E-Mail pontiacal@yahoo.com --- please shoot me an e-mail and I will add you to my address book.

Thanx Alan

Your setup should work fine. I like to see an overall first gear ratio of about 9.5:1 to have good drivability with an aluminum flywheel . Yours is 9.98:1. Be careful with the early M-20 (2.56:1), it had a smaller cluster pin than the later ones (with 2.52:1 first gear). You will be fine if you don't have too many launches with slicks. As to the gear drive - I hate them. They make needless noise and provide no benefit. There is even a possibility that they are harder on the valve train as they don't provide the cushion that a chain does. Mounts - Do the Jim Hand trick. I don't think the Mity Mounts are very good. I think they use cheap mounts and then they add a bolt to them to have the same effect as the Jim Hand mod. Then add an active control on the passenger side. On my GTO I used a shift handle to bolt to the head. It bolts into a bracket I had added to the driver's side of the frame. It is a little loose, but not much. The passenger side is also critical if you have headers that go over the frame.

Yes, I made it to Tiger Run again this year. I lost in the finals, breaking out by 0.011 seconds. I had a great time!

Did I answer all of your questions? B/T/W, you should have interrupted me at Madras before. The worst would be that I would ask you to come back later.

B/T/W, let me know if you get this. I usually screw up the response to the Visitor's messages versus the Private messages.
