I did speak with Bill this morning at 6:40 and he is sending an RA and possibly a Tremec take-off shifter which is above and beyond the call of duty.
Received the take-off shifter today with a RA slip from American Powertrain. Appreciate the quick turn around time.

So I had the swap discussion at lunch, the primary reason it's desireable is to reduce the load on lightened small journal cranks. Doesn't sound like it's desirable with standard V8 intakes like an Air Gap or Victor. Individual runner systems are required.

Here's one of Grant's legal 360 motors at our local dirt track this weekend, Kyle Miller is the kid (19) driving from pole in the #10 car. He's good but also has a slight horsepower advantage.

GW hooked him up with some wide Intros so he needed to swap subframes.

It's been like that for 39 years, doc said there's nothing to worry about.

I'm hoping he can hook me up with some 22" gold wires.
