Finally was able to take the car to the track. 12.15 at 114mph. 1.65 60ft time. Now I just have to figure out how to break into the 11s. Does the madness ever stop?

 

Congrat Rick!! A Yank 4000 stall will get you there!! I am real excited for you and a bit frustrated at the same time........... We did better work to yours then mine...........

You should have told me you were going. I could have went.........

 

Very nice times Rick. Too bad I couldn't have gone yesterday. Maybe next time though. I have to order up some new throttle cables and get the new MAF sensor put in and I should be good to go.

 

Thanks guys, and thanks again Eddie for doing the work to the car. If I would have known, I would have called you. I want to let you drive it so I can watch it go down the track. PS, I guess it was worth the extra wait for the Joe O. cam.

 

What is the wt. of the car?

You have more power somewhere.......or something isn't right, unless its really heavy

I have run way quicker than that@ 3200# and wayyy less h.p.

 

Full weight (options loaded car). And over half a tank of gas. Very small cam. Should my ET be better compared to my MPH? Thanks

 

get it on a scale.....

114 m.p.h you could probly get 11.70 11.80 with little effort.......

You have good 60'......so a little work, a really good converter that works well I say consistant hi 11's is no prob.


Just tweak all the little stuff now

 

Thanks, I'm thinking about a 3600 Yank now. And the 2-3 shift has to come down a little. Maybe a 100 or 200 rpm. Seemed to lag for an instant where its set right now.

 

you get all that little stuff figured out, you will be amazed.....

Its got plenty left in it so keep working on it.



Congrats.

 

It was worth all the work and your stitches.. Like I said a Yank 3600 might be great but I think the 4000 would be better. Javier on this board has basically your set up and runs the 4000 I believe. I might be wrong. I think the car with a better converter is a 11.70 car with the full weight.

Call me NEXT TIME!!

 

Eddie, I'm thinking no bigger than a 3600 because I'm going to spray a 100 shot next year, and don't want to run out of gear. Plus I don't know how a 4000 would be on the street. And thanks mdacton.
