Assembled the dragster engine today 4.125 x 3.625

Make sure Glen sees this with the pulleys in right order.Bottom little small and top little big but at least they are in right order top to bottom.

I agree a little big on the top but I can not fit a larger pulley on the bottom... I am only spinning the blower 8%od it will run 6.60's at 206 with the powerglide I am switching out to a B&J and a clutch this season so want to start with an engine tune up I know!

Jon I see Leatt makes a new model, I have run three different models my first was an R3 it just didn't fit my car to well and it caught the top of the cage when trying to get out, the second was the first 38.1 Leatt that was really comfortable and I felt it was very safe until I tried to get out of my car I was virtually stuck in the car it would have been great in a door car, and my third is a Dfender it is all right I can get in and out of the car all right.
