I thought that was an expensive price. Now they are $535 with the ceramic a $175 dollar option - which is worth it if you can afford it.

RE: [Chevelle-list] Now this is fast (off topic) sort of?
Great article, Where do I rent one for a day HA HA Phil 67 Chevelle From: Jon Bongiorno [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 02, 2004 9:14 PMTo: 'The Chevelle Mailing List'Subject: [Chevelle-list] Now this is fast (off topic) sort of? Real Acceleration Some of us may think we have experienced acceleration g forces, but read this to get a grip of what real acceleration is. But first, some useful info: One Top Fuel dragster 500 cubic inch Hemi engine makes more horsepowerthan the first 4 rows at the NASCAR Daytona 500. Under full throttle, a dragster engine consumes 1 1/2 gallons of nitro methane per second; a fully loaded 747 consumes jet fuel at the same rate with 25% less energy being produced. A stock Dodge Hemi V8 engine cannot produce enough power to drive the dragster supercharger. With 3000 CFM of air being rammed in by the supercharger on overdrive, the fuel mixture is compressed into a near-solid form before ignition.Cylinders run on the verge of hydraulic lock at full throttle. At the stoichiometric 1.7:1 air/fuel mixture for nitro methane the flame front temperature measures 7050 degrees F. Nitro methane burns yellow. The spectacular white flame seen above the stacks at night is raw burning hydrogen, dissociated from atmosphericwater vapor by the searing exhaust gases. Dual magnetos supply 44 amps to each spark plug. This is the output of an arc welder in each cylinder. Spark plug electrodes are totally consumed during one pass. Afterhalf-way, the engine is dieseling from compression plus the glow of exhaust valvesat 1400 degrees F. The engine can only be shut down by cutting the fuel flow. If spark momentarily fails early in the run, unburned nitro builds up inthe affected cylinders and then explodes with sufficient force to blowcylinder heads off the block in pieces or split the block in half. In order to exceed 300 mph in 4.5 seconds dragsters must accelerate at an average of over 4G's. In order to reach 200 mph well before half-track, the launch acceleration approaches 8G's. Dragsters reach over 300 miles per hour before you have completed reading this sentence. Top Fuel Engines turn approximately 540 revolutions from light to light! Including the burnout the engine must only survive 900 revolutions under load. The red-line is actually quite high at 9500 rpm. The Bottom Line; Assuming all the equipment is paid off, the crew workedfor free, and for once NOTHING BLOWS UP, each run costs an estimated US $1,000.00 per second. The current Top Fuel dragster elapsed time record is 4.441 seconds for the quarter mile (10/05/03 Tony Shumacher) The top speed record is 333.00 mph (533 km/h) as measured over the last 66' of the run (09/28/03 Doug Kalitta). Putting all of this into perspective: You are driving the average $140,000 Lingenfelter "twin-turbo" powered Corvette Z06. Over a mile up the road, a Top Fuel dragster is staged and ready to launch down a quarter mile strip as you pass. You have the advantage of a flying start. You run the 'Vette hard up through the gears and blast across the starting line and past the dragster at an honest 200 mph. The 'tree' goes green for both of you at that moment. The dragster launches and starts after you. You keep your foot down hard, but you hearan incredibly brutal whine that sears your eardrums and within 3 seconds the dragster catches and passes you. He beats you to the finish line, a quarter mile away from where you just passed him. Think about it, from a standing start, the dragster had spotted you 200 mph and not only caught, butnearly blasted you off the road when he passed you within a mere 1320 foot long race course. That, folks, is acceleration.
[Chevelle-list] Doug's tri-y headers for a 67 Chevelle BB
Hey Guys, Do you have contact info for Doug's or someone else in the So Cal area. I need to replace the set of Hedmans on my BB 67 Chevelle due to steering column clearance issues and previous owner use of a sledge to get them in, a bit unsightly, hammered off the ceramic coating and they are beginning to rust. Also, does anyone know where I can get a New / Used trans cross member, they also beat the hell out of that to accommodate the 3" exhaust tubes. Thanks Phil Adams -Original Message- From: Tom Tomlinson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 04, 2004 5:51 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Doug's tri-y headers Dave: I think we spoke before I tried the Hedmans two years ago, which is why I bought them. The problem was on the drivers side. I got them in position ok (I think I had to jack up the engine), but after I bolted them snug to the head, they hit the cross member. I determined they would have fit fine if the flange was at a sightly steeper angle with respect to the head. In other words, if I loosened the header bolts slightly, the header would clear fine, but tightening the bolts forced one of the tubes to hit the cross member. I suspect the header flange was welded on at the wrong angle. Rather than exchange them for another pair, someone on this list steered me to the Sandersons, which were great for a mild 350. Summit took the Hedmans back, no questions asked.
