Description
Contents: Up Front – Bench Builder (Work with what you have and be happy) Hands On – Horsepower (John Calvert’s 351 Windsor Stock Eliminator engine. We think it makes a little more power than he says it does); Speed Parts (Are you shopping for oil, a clutch pedal, or Troz art? We have it here); New Pontiac Cylinder Heads (Tech Editor Smith snags a set and runs them through the ringer); Fire Extinguisher Tech (Yes, you read that right. Don’t worry, we’re not going nanny state on you. Just think of this as paying it forward. No one wants to see his shop/warehome burn to the ground); How To Build A Street/Strip 350 (We yanked the 404 LS engine out of our Orange Peel Chevelle, dropped in a budget 350 SBC, and hit the track for some good old fashioned carburetor, ignition and nitrous testing); Swap A T5 (A manual transmission swap doesn’t always require taking out a second mortgage. Contributor Stephen Kim walks you through a T5 installation for about $500); Ask Anything (Cam timing tips and the advantage of an S-60 rear are the topics this month) Project Garage – This Guy’s Garage (Murray Pfaff builds all those cool cars here? What’s our excuse); A 727 For The Demon (Boeing ended production of its 727 airliner in 1984, Chrysler carried production of its 727 TorqueFlite through the ’80s, replacing it with the A-518, a four-speed overdrive transmission based on the 727s design) Features – Krass & Bernie (Original factory lightweight? Now we’ve seen it all); NMRA’s Coyote Stock (A new class promising affordable cars and fast e.t.’s); Pat Neveu’s ’63 Tempest (You don’t see many of these turned into drag cars. This one is especially badass); The Copo Camaro (Cancel your subscription right now if this car doesn’t excite you) Back Of The Book – Junkyard Crawl (Weight loss from acid dripping is cool; weight loss from rust is unfortunate); Where’s The Fun? (Check out the massive wheelie opening the section); On The Rack (Myyyyyyy Prrrreeeeeeeeccccccciiiiiiioooooouuuuuuuussssssss!!!!!!!!
