thickness on those orange gaskets? i need a set of both. yes, it is a work of art. never seen one done like that.

.020 base, .050 head

Medyo,

They are made to order Cometic copper gaskets, ordered through Dynoman. Typical delivery time is about a week or less. Cometic ships directly to buyer. I've ordered Cometic copper gaskets from Dynoman 3 times in the last 2 months(I keep "losing" mine

) and got them fast every time.

Just send Buzz an email with what you want and what thickness for each, and he will send you an invoice by email. PayPal the amount given, and the order is in right away. Easy.

George

You're getting there Bill. The small details are what'll get you the numbers you desire. Then its going to be about seat time. Lots of seat time.

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #334 on:** May 03, 2016, 11:03:17 PM »

Yes sir, you right as usual! Lol

I don't think Larry( Spiderman) McBride has that many gadgets on his top fuel bike. Wow. I guess that's what it takes to go fast.

LMAO, I did think sumpin I won't print! I ain't done yet! SMH.

Your bike even tells time....

.

Is there an alarm clock function? You can use it to wake yourself up in the morning(running and ducking)

Keep working Bill. It'll be less on your mind come race day. Distractions affect our performance so we need clear minds when going for the win. Racing is 99% mental.

As y'all probably know, Rick Stetson does a lot of machining work on my stuff through Mike Rieck. Wow, just found out, he invented the 2 step, way cool. Smart, talented man he is!
Way to go Rick !!!!, Bill

Lighter, lower, leaner, meaner, cleaner, thanks to Frank who always kept after me to build a purpose built dragbike. Well, Frank, here you go, hope it runs as well as your's! Thanks for the advice and help, thanks to all who have helped. Grips and mount new front fender, oh and c/guard and we ready to go racing! Yippee Kai Yeah, Bill
It's so low, 2.5 inches, maybe 3/4, I can sit on it on the lift and put my feet flat footed on the floor! K.

I don't think you need the oil temp and voltage gauges Bill seeing how you are taking all non necessary stuff off. How hot can the oil get and how much voltage drop can there be 1/4 mile at a time? Seriously....just invites an electrical problem.

Glad to see you've lowered it and have a stiffer frontend. More items checked off a long list to the path of racing success.

Word of caution, right hand turns will now be much more tricky. That pipe WILL get scrapped up no matter how slow you make right hand turns. Valdosta and Rockingham have right side turn offs to the return road so be cautious. Memphis isn't an issue since you will lean right through the sweeping portion of their road course on the way to the ticket both.

Guys, as much as it pains us to see the bling and unnecessary items on Bill's bike, I say: Get used to it cause in all likelihood, he's not taking any of that excess baggage off in my opinion.
