My new combo

Well over the winter I have built a new motor and hope to see low 10's. Heres the run down.
Bowtie race block
4 bolt splayed billet caps
Lunati forged crank
Crower rods
Crower hippo lifter
ATI balancer
AFR 227 race heads
Jesel shaft mount kit 1.5
Ross 13.1 forged pistons
Comp cam soild roller cam
.661/.633, @ .050 .276/.283 on a 108 lobe speration, 4/7 swap
Moroso 7 quart pan with built in scrapper and tray
Dart single plane
Pro systems 1000 cfm 4150
Aerospace vacum pump kit
Hooker 2210's for now
Th400 trans ATI custom 8 inch converter, have to have that built yet.
Still a 9 inch with 4.30 gears
The car weights 3200 last time I weighed it.
Hopefully I can get out there soon, I forgot how long this all takes with a new build.

Re: My new combo

The last set up was good and got me into the 11.3's @ 119 mph. It was just time for something different and faster of course.
