Yes it's a solid roller but it only has 240 degrees of duration @50 and my old 355 has more torque now than any other camshaft I have had before (Hotcam, CC306, LE1 etc..). The first pass I made, I left from 2,000rpms off the footbrake and the car yanked both front wheels up and was on the 6,900 rpm limiter before I could shift to 2nd, I was pleasently surprised on how well it pulls down low. I plan on putting some 3.73's in the car also in the next month or so. I am expecting big things once the n2o goes back on later this month. Clint

New twins and you still have the car, plus time to work on it? Excellent.

Clint,

Good job! 121+ with a little 355 is neat. Congrats on the twins! I can't imagine having twin SStrokerAces.

Id love to see a dyno graph?

You're welcome!

I hear you also got all the broken TVs in the house fixed... since that's what caused the twins. ;-)

Very nice shake down runs Clint, can't wait to see it dialed in.

How did the dr's like the transbrake?

I want to say thanks to Lloyd Elliott and Brett Bauer for hooking me up with an awesome heads/cam package.
Here you go Brett, I posted this on the first post.
The power brakes work fine and I don't have a dyno sheet b/c after making 16 pulls and working on the car most of the day I loaded up and went home. But I plan to go by and get the graphs later on this week. Thanks guys. Later

7mph difference over what? Clint is a pretty dedicated racer and keeps trying things/fixing things to make it run right. I have to believe there is a lot left in it as there are quite a few HR/A4 setups running low 11's @ 121+ mph.
