It just keeps going faster.

Went racin again last night and the truck continued to pick up. I went out in the first round (bulbed) but i still got 3 real good passes out of the truck.

I dont know if it was due to the timing or not though. The temperature was about 30 degrees cooler than last time out, but it was very humid. The D.A. was around 1000', same as last time out. I bumped the timing from 29* to 33*. I run it locked out all the way from 800rpms. Here are the slips, tell me what ya think.

Last nights slip.

60' 1.831
330' 4.975
1/8 7.592
MPH 93.27
1000' 9.89
1/4 11.855
MPH 114.3

Slip from previous best run

60' 1.885
330' 5.085
1/8 7.725
MPH 91.37
1000' 10.03
1/4 11.998
MPH 114.14

horsepwraddict · 08-29-2009, 06:06 PM

yep, still have em. They are working great, i dont drive them on the street though. Sorry I cant give you any personal imput. I do know of several people running them on the street in g-bodies and they have no complaints what so ever.

good. Did you notice a difference in clearnce from your headers? I had mine notched but it still doesnt have enough clearnce that I want. And i figured since my headers are off, i can easily get the UCA's out.

Nice times.....

why did it fall on the big end compared to your previous?

2nd list is his previous, so he ran faster. Given the 30 degree cooler air I would have guessed he would have picked up more than that.

But he will have to experiment, add timing with the same octane gas until the MPH falls, then set it where it ran best.

BTW good times man.
