ZZ383

Need some help getting more power LOL have ZZ383 with edelbrock supercharger on it. msd dis. msd al7 methelal injection and i run race fuel in it.Going to put some better pistons in it now and get heads ported ect and better cam, anyone with some ideas would be great.Best time so far is 8.80 at 151 mph in the 1/4.Allso i changed the pully for more boost but only gained 1 more lb of boost should have got 4-5 more i think its the cam holding me back. 1500lb dragster is what it is in.

Re: ZZ383

Ummm...... you gotta be kidding me. Even in a 1500 lb. rail high 8s seems just a tad unbelievable.

Putting that aside for now, a pulley change should always drop to the bottom line in boost. Depends on how big a pulley change, but also on whether you've gone so far that you're slipping the belt. If your cam is holding you back you should be seeing the opposite- more boost, but power not improving much.

Also, your website seems to..... um..... not exist. Can anybody tell me what that smell is that I'm smelling?
