12.33!

I have the MP 175k converter Ron. 11's would be fun,we'll see what it can do next year after I do some tweaking.
Thanks everyone! [smilie=::
 
cool beans, beeps!!

Tri State looks like a nice track ('cept it was a 'lil wet, when I went by there)

Wish I coulda cruised by, and checked out the 'runner, but I hadda go home and stare miserably, at the junk in my garage. :(

still...congrats on the low 12 second passes. Could we get a refresher on your combination?? I know its a 451, mild gears, heavy car, etc. But how ratty is the cam?? (IF'n its not top secret ;) )

Gonna try to get in the 11s???

Here ya go Marty,cam is a Hughes grind:237/242@.050 with 548/555 lift on 108 Degree centerline.
Torker intake with Eddy 800 Thunder carb,box stock Eddy heads 10.5 to 1 comp.
11's would be nice and someday I hope to get it there. [smilie=w:
 
Thanks Beep,

I try to get an idea of how modded people's combos are, to run various ETs. Too bad Im gettin' old and fergettin' as many as I hear of... :(

I prolly should start some sorta compendium.

Beeper, Slap about 5 degree's down on your pinion angle, and some long shocks. That along with some 9x29.5 M/T's and the 4:10's should get you down to a 1.70 60ft, and instant 11's. Your 60ft times are whats stopping you from being there now.
 
I am resisting the urge to change rear gears to keep good street manners,I know of a 3:91 chunk available locally I might be willing to try..we will see. [smilie=e:
Pinion angle it has now [i]could[/i] be the cause of my top end shake and further investigation is needed there. The car still has the original standard leaf springs in it(read:Tired)...Better springs would help also? [smilie=e:
With that 1.78 60 foot it pulled with the current combo I can't be far off........
 
i use caltracs & had my 60 footers down to 1.64. my slicks are really worn & the times have fallen off to 1.76

with everything working i can pull the front wheels up about 3"
