Tow Vehicles / Dynamax Force HD Motorhomes
« on: July 25, 2016, 09:17:05 AM »
My wife and I are looking to get a Dynamax Force HD to haul our car and enclosed trailer.  Eventually we want to upgrade to a 2-car stacker.  Has anyone had experience with this brand an model?  They have 350hp Cummins 1000 lb torqe.  20k lb towing capacity.  The one thing that concerns me is the overhang past the rear axle which is 11 or 12 feet depending on exact model.

Thanks, Chris.

Front Engine Dragsters / Lithium Batteries

Hello. I have to cut some serious weight out.  I'm currently using a Red Top AGM battery that weighs 40#.  I'm looking at a Lithium unit but want to get it right the first time.  I do not run an alternator and have an MSD 10 and data logger.  Anyone had good luck with a particular brand / model?  Thanks for your help.

Front Engine Dragsters / Front End Designs / traction issues
« on: September 23, 2014, 11:26:54 AM »
I currently have a MW torsion bar front end with a 1960's front axle and spindles.  The wheels are "creitz equipment" spoked but are 16". (only found one tire to fit).  The car is too heavy and looking to cut weight out.  I'm thinking of converting to a solid axle bolted to the chassis with light weight spindles and new 17" aluminum rims.  The other issue is that the car pulls the front end about 6" then spins badly.  Sometimes goes up in smoke. So I'm thinking that removing a few pounds off of the front may help the front carry a bit longer, easier. I'm looking for thoughts on what would be strong enough but yet ligter than what I have now. 

Car specs:
1625 lb with me...Way too heavy. 80% on rear
30 x 10.5's
4:11 gears
1.76 low gear
6700 stall - leave at 5500
352 ci Ford Cleveland
injected alcohol
best et with this combo so far is 5.04 in 1/8th 1.200 60'

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
