Is that a flex chassis? Randy Gumalt had a problem with his dragster breaking loose around the 1/8th mile marker because the chassis was too rigid. He thought a flex chassis would fix that. He made numerous changes but nothing seemed to help. Just wanted to mention.

Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

Randy's chassis was also BBC. I've never pitted for a full on dragster so I have no experience in this. Just passing on what I was told. I wishing all the best for you and your setup. We need a new record I think its currently at 7.8 for the quarter. Living proof that the Y-block got a bum rap. Love to see you at the shootout in June.

I think Randy's chassis was designed for less power.  I think they thought that it would be adequate since it had a BBC but it got a very powerful, blown Y.

I can see him thinking that a chassis made for a BBC would work on the Y. Seems he overpowered it.

This one is a 234" Spitzer, and has run a lot faster than I will, I had to loose 15 lbs to fit in the car (I still need to loose 15 lbs more), I worked hard to go to the Y Block meet in San Diego meet this week (not going to make it), making parts and waiting for parts takes a long time, however 2 back up engines are also in the works, and 2 transmissions, the car is certed, a set of new tires and very close but not yet.
