6.90 in the 1/8th, next stop 10s in the 1/4!
 

After months and months of trying to get the car right after the first shop screwed me out of thousands of dollars, I finally hit the sweet spot and threw in a converter. First test hit at Northstar Dragway threw down a 6.90 @100.25 with a 1.54 60', a .5 second improvement over my previous best in the 1/8.

Mods are blower cam, light head work, e85, 3600 FTI converter, bolt ons, and a 17" race star on the back with a 26" tall 275 ET Street R.

Hopefully I can hit up Texas Motorplex on Sunday with a good DA and send it into the 10s!

Great Pass, you'll be in the 10's for sure. Probably 10.80's@125

Congrats on your new PR. Happy to see your up and running, and running strong

Thanks! And 10.8 would be amazing. It's been a pain with all this car has gone through (if anyone followed my thread in the v8 NA section here), but it's a monster now and one hell of a daily.

I bet it goes 10.70 or better.

I would die if it did a 10.70. I'll have to put a camera facing me because the reaction would be priceless.

That's awesome!! Who's heads and cam? specs?

Baily's Hyperformance custom spec cam and the heads are stock heads ported by the first shop that screwed me over (old thread of mine explains the whole thing). They seem to flow okay so we've left them on.

Pretty simple setup overall and the converter woke it up and threw the times way down.

Glad you got it running good now.

Should be around 10.8 now maybe better.
Good luck

The reason I say 10.70 is because our cars get their asses kicked with all of the shifting going on in the 1/8 mile, but in the 1/4 mile they can make up ground. With good air, the tune being on point, and being able to hook up it'll be interesting for sure.

Hope you're right. Headed to the shop tomorrow on the drag radials and we're gonna pick through the tune and dial it in a bit more. Then Sunday I'm just gonna send it and see what happens, have a lot of friends that have been around the car since the beginning with the first shop messing it all up going to cheer me on so I'm trying not to let them down. :happy0180:
