Tire Pressures?

What are the recommended pressures for the Goodyear "Billboards" on a Kirkham 427?

Thanks,
Paul

I'm sorry, I've just tried a different "search" and come up with a number of suggestions. Does 24-26psi sound about right?

I used 24 to 25 psi for 9,000 and the tire wear was even,

I hope this means your engine is running proper.

Not yet, but Bill at SA is on the case. He suspects the carb is at fault and is sending me a new double pumper, which has been setup on his dyno on a 427the same as mine.
I can't fault SA for their commitment to fully resolve the issue.

Thanks for the replies.
