If you are naturally aspirated this is simple – Do you have a firewall and is your trans completely covered by tin? If you do – Then it is a -5 suit – If not it is a 15. It doesn’t matter if it is an aftermarket case or not, the above rules apply –

If you are running a head restraint then you still need some kind of fire protection for your neck. Either a sock under your helmet – A skirt on your helmet – Or a neck collar along with your head restraint.

Just found this site… Thanks to an on line friends recommendation. Finally a site with an altered forum..  I am building a new 565 for mine this winter, which has entailed a new trans build, a gear change and a complete rear end rebuild with several other changes. So mine is hand grenaded all over the garage, but slowly going back together.

I have spent over 10 hours this weekend just getting the heads on and setting up the new T&D rockers. These things are nice, but a pain to set up. Not really anything wrong with the rockers, but you have to put them on and off about a hundred times to get everything just the way you want. I hope to have the motor finished by next weekend if I can get the push rods I need here by mid week….

Can’t wait for the season to start….. I am sick of snow
