327 POLARIS
 

IT IS A DRAG MACHINE FOR RADAR RUNS,,, NOTHING HAS BEEN MODIFIED ON THE SLED ITSELF EXCEPT FOR AIR SHOCKS.... I WILL POST MY NEW PICTURES LATER,, YOU WILL LIKE...

Fuel delivery issue probably
 

You are out of hand brother. One minor detail, your carb bowls will run out of fuel unless you buy wedge shaped floats. These carbs are not meant to take G forces east and west and control fuel level, just north and south. Might even throw a cup full of fuel at you too out the vents when you accelerate forward. Food for thought, maybe when it runs out of fuel, the hesitation will be timed about the same time you realize you are on your death run, who knows. If we don't hear back from you after testing, I'll have a clue what might have happened to the driver.
Good luck

That's a big 10-4 DD. :lol:

Nice project!!!
Do any of you remember the drag bike called the "Barn Job"? Unless I am mistaken, that was the first time someone used a V-8 on a bike. It was also a 327 SBC mounted sideways. They had a trick stand that would collapse with a trigger release. It was a hand full.... :D

If its a problem, just turn the carb 90 degrees and be done with it

Re: Fuel delivery issue probably
 

Worst advise I ever heard...........Carb will be fine,you ever own a blown motor??,my biggest concern would be oiling,a circletrack pan would be nice,if you dont have one already..jmo...

SLED
 

WOULD THAT WORK???

I HAVE HAD ALOT OF NEGATIVITY SINCE I STARTED THIS PROJECT,, FEW OF MY BUDDIES SAID I WAS AN IDIOT,, BUT NOW THAT ITS RUNNING THEY HAVE HAD A CHANGE OF OPINION... THANKS ALOT GUNHO FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT...

I had a 66 S/ST Nova with a holly tunnel ram running 2 660 ctr. squirters mounted side ways, ran from 10.31 to 10.59 with different size sm/blks, never missed a beat in 4 yrs. running it.

Getting ready to pull out the polaris again. Looking forward to testing the direct drive setup in it now.. Did a few grass drag test runs over the summer and is scary fast now...

I love the gomobile. Oiling is the first thing I thought about then all that white stuff on the ground. Looks cold. Not for me :lol:

I've never seen a snow mobile so excuse my ignorance. What kind of transmission does it have and how'ed you hook it to the V8?


I would have to put a fake pull starter on it if it were mine! And act like I was pulling it when I hit the starter button!

It has a snowmobile clutch mounted to the crankshaft and runs a normal snowmobile belt.

I like the fake pull starter idea, going to do that for sure!!!

how did i miss seeing this till now ....lol that is bad ass :)

Some updated pictures of the sled...

ok naysayers, you HAVE NO HOTROD spirit! looks like chevynovaman does thou! hell guys hotroders been building fast things since the very beginning.i dont like snow mobiles because i dont like snow but i sure would like to ride that baby. i ridin v8 bikes so why not. my hats off to you chevynovaman.as far as carbs go, ive always wonder about sideways carbs on a car, they seem to work on a blown engine so why not a snowmobile? how the hell do they work sidways anyway?

Actually since I built the sled, I look forward to winters now. I have had more fun and excitement with this then you could imagine. I will never forget the first time I took it to the snowmobile drags event at anchor bay and 200 peple went into shock over it..
For the first two years I had a holley 650 dp on it and never missed a beat ever.. Now it is fuel injected with a holley pro jection and works very well also.. Thanks for the comments

I really like that hot rod you have built. I could see myself on that thing about 40yrs ago! Bad to the bone, cold bones in your case! Just one sugestion, if you turn many rpm's I'd like to see you put a harmonic balancer shield or sfi damper on it. Extreme cold weather may make it more brittle, I don't know. It may never let go, but if it does you are too close to it with nothing in between. JMO. Keep on racing and having fun.

cool sled
