Did I mention I'm running a powerglide? I ease into it with my current combination.
That's why I'm bringing 2 sets of axles and fluid because I don't think I'll hook to hard but even getting on it multiple times will get the axles to explode at some point. I've only got a 370 posi so my "Space Shuttle" won't launch to hard with an automatic. We will see. Might not hold together and be forced to throw my 470 spool 9inch under it.If your not braking stuff, your not trying hard enough. Kinda like "Hold My Beer And Watch This"

Sounds like that car would make a good pull back car for a dragster.
There was a sweet vintage rail just up the street from me for sale last summer. I passed on it because I had a baby on the way. I'll end up using it to flat tow my 2dr 64 belair to the drag strip just like they did in the old days.Sounds like that car would make a good pull back car for a dragster.
google maps says from my place to Earlville, Iowa is exactly 409 miles.
three piece? I'd like to see that.Did I mention I'm running a powerglide and 3 piece drive shaft? I ease into it with my current combination.

three piece? I'd like to see that.
Well, in that case I have a three piece also!They call them 2 piece but when I put the slip yoke on the back half I consider it 3 major pieces. Besides if you stand close to it at the start line you will likely see it come out in 7-8 pieces really quickly if I hook good. I'll have a couple sets of 17 splines handy with fluid and a welder just for the rear end at the track but I will bring another shaft incase I need to swap parts. Still working on getting my drive shaft loop installed. Never know though. By July I could have a TH400 with a manual valve body in there because the glide might let go. If anyone knows the area I'm in there is miles of perfectly flat new roads that will be my test and tune this spring until Eddyville opens back up. I'll set up some special markers on the side of the road and try and get some practice runs in. Nothing but corn fields and flat black top.
there will only be one class.
