The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread
A Happy New year to all! We pulled the motor out in Nov. I took to my engine guy,Pete. Pete, did my first motor for the car. This motor has five years on it. And about 500 passes, on it. He;s putting it back together,should be ready in about 2 weeks.He;s doing a few small mods to the motor. Thiner head gaskets, oil rings set up for a vaccum pump, eight thousand off the heads. So it should be a little more faster? I;ll have a update, when we put the motor in. Maybe a few pics! Thanks The Dutchman [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif[/img]

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread
I can see a new and very fast A/MP record coming to the LRC Group. You will be able to dabble in some pro Stock wars on Sunday afternoon at Englishtown. It pays more than Modified Eliminator does. GO BENNY GO!

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread
Pete's Automotive. 610-326-8322. No answering machine just keep trying. Honest as the day is long!

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread
Update, Got the oil pressure up to 60 lbs. Dropped the distributor in. Turned on the electic fuel pump. And lite the eight candles. A sound for sore ears! The Dutchman

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread
I bet Professor. And yet even a few more HP from the boys at the LRC camp for the 2017 season. That B/MP record of 9.98 set in late 1973 is right there for that very sleek painted BBC powered nova. B-B-Benny and the Jets!

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread
There will be two Big Block novas campaining out of the LRC shop this year.Plus there is a third car, I helped with, last year. A 70 Challenger A/S Hemi. Ray Barton car. We;re having the time of our lives! That most guys, wish they could DO!!The Dutchman [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif[/img]

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread
Its good to see how much LRC has grown in a few years. The B/MP record is going down this year and maybe the C/MP record also. Campaigned out of Lehighton, Pa.
Pete Suriano of Pete's Automotive (Pottstown, PA.) supplies the power plants for the 2 Modified Production novas. Call LRC for your racing wants and needs, your Day-2 wants and needs or just to do some bench racing. Benny is always willing to help. |
Re: The Flying Dutchman 2017 Thread
I don't know about all this record smashing stuff, I'm just waiting to see Benny get past the 3rd round! My kid Benjamin is going to take him down in a year or two [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
