    Hey back in the late 80s this old man had this junkyard and gave me his racing heads off his old VW. He helped me build a pretty quick Bug

    • @Lowonfuel
      @Lowonfuel 3 года назад

      The few times he lost was probably due to slow shifting. So he definitely has a shifting issue... I think he still has a standard shifter (or not fast enough) and may need a short shift kit, or do something about the transmission.

    • @danhard8440

    • @Lowonfuel
      @Lowonfuel 3 года назад

      @@danhard8440 I know the word... and I did mean slow-shifting, that was the first thing I noticed. Many cars with standard transmissions had shift sticks with long throws that made fast shifting-gears nearly impossible. As for the engine revs, the engine idles normally, and it doesn't sound like he has a racing high revving cam installed. I know cams have changed a lot, and he may have one of the torque camshafts, but they are not designed to take the engine revs much higher than stock, they are designed to improve HP and Torque starting from lower RPMs and deliver the power during a wider power band but start losing power at higher RPMs.

      @@Lowonfuel what your talking about is with the linkage not the transmission or short shifting

    • @Lowonfuel
      @Lowonfuel 3 года назад

      @@danhard8440 And you're talking about the engine acceleration without consideration for the shift linkage or transmission gear ratios, etc., etc. and It all goes together if the linkage is not right, and the shift stick is too long which was very usual those years, it takes longer to shift gears and I say this because the guy takes longer in-between/shifting gears than normal for a drag race.
      You may have driven a performance-oriented car and noticed they have short shift sticks, with short throws, those make shifting faster and smoother (that's what the short shift kit I was talking about does). Older cars did not have that, almost all had tall shift sticks with long throws.
      And if you pay close attention, he's shifting at about the same moment the competitors do. And sometimes he takes even longer than necessary (for the engine power)... that's when the higher gear comes on and the tires grab the road, making it evident the speed was higher than necessary for the next gear. It's as bad to shift too late, as it is to shift too soon.
