355" LT1 runs 10.64@129mph on a little spray.
355" LT1 runs 10.64@129mph on a little spray.
I brought the car out for some testing at a local track and with some less than great track conditions I got my ole LT1 to run 10.64@129mph. The 60's were pretty bad ranging from 1.60-1.68 spinning quite a bit. The car normally 60's high 1.5's on motor so if I can get it to hook up and run 1.40's on n2o the car should run low 10's on the 150 shot. I plan on putting my hybrid 8.8" rear next week with some 3.55 gears in it and plan on heading to a different track. The only bad part is the car isn't legal to run faster than 11.50's. Maybe I'll get to make a few good passes before they run me out. I made 4 passes altogether and here is how they went.
1.68 60'
7.088 1/8th
10.92@127.5mph first pass spun pretty bad.
1.65 60'
7.00 1/8th
10.78@128mph
1.63 60'
6.88 1/8th
10.72@128mph
1.60 60'
6.80 1/8th
10.64@129mph fresh bottle!
I am hoping to go low 10's on the 150shot with a real good launch and then I plan on spraying 200 on it. Later Clint

I don't remember what the timing is set at but I got the tune from Brent's site and just put it in my PCM but it's somewhere in the high 30's when i looked at it. I don't pull any timing I usually just mix 5 gallons of 110octane with a 1/4 tank of pump gas and run it like that. This time I had put 5 gallons on an empty tank last weekend but I only got to make one pass before blowing a header gasket so I filled the car up with pump gas and I ended up running it just like that with no signs of detonation on the plugs. NX doesn't reccomend pulling timing so I just add a little fuel to be safe although I do plan on pulling 2-4 degrees on the 200shot or straight 110 octane. Later

Cool...Makes me feel better about that 6" rod, 12:1 compression, 847 cammed 355 I'm building. I plan on spraying a 200 shot of progressively controlled NX. How much does your car weigh?

Thanks guys, if the car would only 60' a little better it would run alot better but it's making major time on the other end withe those 3.42's crossing at 6500 in high gear. With a 7.088 in the 1/8th mile it shouldn't be able to run 10's in the 1/4 but it still ran 10.90's.
Frank you better be planning on pulling some timing with 12.1 or run staright C16!

Thanks fellas but sorry no 1/8th mile mph at the track I was running at. I plan on making it out to another track this Saturday that hooks better and has 1/8th mile mph too. I would assume about 104-105mph in the 1/8th though b/c my car ran 97mph N/A in the 1/8th. Later Clint
