I am running a 406 that I got from bjuice. I added a set off aluminum bowtie heads. I have never driven a tube chassis car with a strut front end and this short of wheel base. I have raced Novas ever since I started back in 85.
I will try a little more pressure in the tires next time as well. I was just going off what the last owner was running. I am running a 14.5 x 15 x 32 Goodyear on the back.
Also the track I tested at is a pretty bad track. Really narrow, I went there originally to see how she launched and run a half track pass. I have never liked LaGrange (Troop County). But it was the only one I could get to in a reasonable amount of time after I got off work.
Thanks for the advice. Keep them coming.
