This is what I ended up getting. The nice thing about it is I got to attach it to the old three speed shifter that I left in the car. When I go on trips and driving around town I can put the shifter in second gear and be able to read the speedometer and calculate gas mileage on trips. The screw clamp that holds it on is completely hidden inside the mount also. Neat application.

Most non radial drag slicks are required to have tubes by their manufacturer, but I know of virtually nobody that runs tubes. I have Hoosier slicks on my Mustang, and M/Ts on my Fairmont, no tubes in either, and they work well, and can sit for over a month without needing any air added. I am thinking a quick time style tire would have thicker sidewalls than a real slick, so I wouldn`t worry about tubes myself.

Rory428,
   Thank you for that information. Makes it easier on me. Jim

Guys,
   I need some help here. I'm looking at The Hoosier Quick Time Pro and I see where it needs a tube. Sooooo, I begin looking at tubes and it says the valve stem is centered (I guess it means the center of the wheel). Well, I'm going to be using a Wheel Vintiques OE Ford rim and I know the valve stem on those are not centered in the wheel. Question: can I use a regular tube that would fit the tire and wheel or do I have to have special tubes for slicks.

Let me clarify how my Tremec TKO install went. I called Bradley Wedan in Columbus, In and told him I wanted to put a Tremec TKO 600 in my 57 Ford with FE engine. HE gathered all the parts. He sent me the Lakewood Bell Housing, McCleod clutch and pressure plate, Mike Forte's needle bearing pilot bearing ( Mike Forte was the first guy I think to put a Tremec behind an FE and made the pilot bearing himself), thowout bearing, and ordered the TKO 600 from Tremec with the shortened input shaft to fit the application without using spacers and he sent me the rubber transmission mount. He also used the long throw shift pattern that I wanted. I had about $4500 in the conversion.
The moral to this is, I didn't know what I was doing so I found people that did it for a living and followed their instructions. I couldn't have ordered the parts any cheaper myself and probably saved money doing it. Nothing went wrong with the installation and 40,000 miles later it goes thru the quarter in 14.3 and gets about 10,000 miles a year put on it. I paid for that to happen.

FPA shorty headers. Call Stan Johnson and talk to him about what you got.

I'm replacing my 5" Sunpro tachometer with the flashing light that I set for 10,000 rpm just so it won't come on. The first one I bought didn't go over 3500 rpm so they told me to keep it and sent another one that worked. This one seems to work fine but it hides my speedometer when I go to car shows and take trips. I want a smaller 3 3/8" tachometer.
WHAT TACHOMETER DO YOU GUYS RECOMMEND THAT IS 3 3/8" AND YOU'VE FOUND ACCURATE AND DEPENDED ON FOR DRAG RACING IN YOUR CARS.
Thanks guys, Jim

Jay,
   My peak power is suppose to be at 5000 rpm and that's where I've been shifting. I've got cast pistons and hydraulic valves in this engine. When I had Scott make the cam I specified 5000 because I wanted the benefit of the cast pistons and hydraulic valves gave me.

Just what I wanted to know. Thanks Guys. Jim
Just ordered the AR3924's from Summit. I don't know what the AR does, but I want it.
