For those keeping score, those Cragar G/T's on the front with the radials are yet another set Jed has, so the bias redline can get swapped on at anytime he feels like it. Arrived with the slicks in the trunk swapped them on before tech.





Passed tech easily. Both inspectors gave a nice compliment saying the Nova was one of the nicest cars there that evening!





Rev-Pol Engaged!

Thanks Paul!

The numbers weren't satisfactory to me, so I went back through the distributor and found that my advance plunger had the leather chewed off the end of it and I never maxed out my advance weight plate. Swapped in a non vac advance distributor and readjusted the timing. Now it likes 16 degrees initial and what a difference!

This is from a local car show yesterday. I had no clue they were judging the show. I guess my fiance and I will be eating good!

And my very first plaque. I guess I have been selling myself short?
