Evening all, slinky here..
I'm a newbie to this forum, so I'll tell you a little bit about our outfit and what we do...
We run a pair of cars, 1 dragster and 1 grass track oval car.. (both can be seen below)
We're running the dragster in PRO-ET in the uk, and this is our first season with the car..
It's running the following :
406ci Small Block Chevy
Trick Flow Twisted Wedge aluminium heads
Edelbrock Torker 2 Inlet Manifold
Choice of 650 or 750 Holley Carb
Mild Cam
SFI Crank Damper
Comp Cams Pro Magnum Roller Rockers
Comp Cams Racing Pushrods
Holley Blue Top Fuel Pump
Braided Steel Hoses Throughout
MSD 6-AL Ignition Control
MSD Two Step Rev Limiter
Mallory Dual Point Distributer
Accell 44000 Volt Super Coil
Taylor Pro Plug Leads
Champion Plugs
2 Speed Powerglide with TCI Manual Transbrake Valve Body
B&M Pro Bandit Shifter
B&M Torque Converter
SFI Flex Plate
SFI Safety Shields
Ford 8 inch (Narrowed)
Solid Spool
4.11 Pro Gears
Centreline Convo Pro wheels (12x15) with 12.5x30x15 Goodyear Eagle Tyres (and Mickey T's up front)
It's still in a very mild tune as we're bracket racing, but we've seen a 10.504 out of it so far...
Here's a shot of the car doing what it's designed to do at santa pod..
Anyway, hope you like the car.. feel free to pop over to http://587racing.com to keep up to date with our exploits, and say hello on the forum if you fancy it...
Cheers,
slinky

Ok about my turn to introduce myself. No up to date pictures, I thought a hydraulic throw out bearing is more important than a camera.
My name's Roger, my friends call me Rog.
I have a 63SS that's been parked since 85. Everytime I get ready to paint it something better comes along for the drivetrain. Presently I'm running a 406, M-21 4 speed, and an 8.5 narrowed to match the stock width. Running 3.42's My short term plans are putting it back together with the new throw out bearing, installing custom made frame rails and finishing off the exhaust. Maybe I can paint it then.
I also have a 90 c-1500 454SS 16,000 built from 90 to 94
