11.53@122.19mph

For the ET the Top Speed seems a bit on the low side. I would have expected high 120's. 125 at least. I would think.

Hey it's a great run, well done, just contemplating the numbers and what it all means...

Really good numbers to the 1/8th mile, seems like it falls off a little toward the end run, save the bottle for 3rd or 4th gear. Of course ET is what wins races, just speculating on how to get there quicker.

Mitzy,

What can I say?

I'm blown away!

Great effort!

HI Excaliber


"save the bottle for 3rd or 4th"

Not sure what you mean but I have not used the NOS yet and probably wont untill I get 10.99 or quicker NA.

There is more Top speed, and that is some of the reason for the dyno session, towards the end of the run I flatten off as I am about to hit the rev limiter, to fix that I have set it higher.

Sheesh...

355odd kws!!!

Thats some great power. Is there a thread with your engine specs?

[Philm]

HI HVSREDSLED,
The engine is a 4 bolt Dart Iron eagle "302" block with the 4 1/8 inch bore.
The crank is an eagle stroker giving the engine a 369ci capacity.
Forged rods, CP pistions custom ported Dart Pro 1 heads.
Solid roller cam. 1.6 crane rockers.

DC@O 50mm 8 throttle body manifold, 1 3/4 primaries stepped up to 2 inch then in a 4 inch pipe with a 2 1/2 inch perforated tube.

The fuel system is overkill and the engine breath thru the bonnet scoop.

Motec M48 runs the engine and an MSD 6A ingnition for spark.

The static compression is 11.5 to one but some of that is bleed off by the cam.

There is actually not one Ford made part in the engine


I am using V power (shell) but may switch to BP Ulimate.

Man am I envious of that package. What a great looking and great performing combo.

Good luck tonight Phil. Have fun.

I know Phil isn't using giggle gas, so this doesn't apply to him.

Using NOS after half track (or in the higher gears) is pretty much a waste of time. Granted it will drop your ET by a small margin, the only real improvement will be in trap speed (which means virtually nothing)... You would be much better off using it to half track then switching it off (though it's better to just leave it on).
