went to the 1/4 mile tonight. if you remember, was previous best was a 15.31 @ 88 mph. tonight, after only changing rear gears from 4.10 to 3.73 and changing to a flowmaster muffler, i ran a best of 15.13 still @ 88 mph! i was shooting for high 14s, even a 14.99 but i guess i can't complain about gaining right at 2 tenths! videos to come.... video of my beating my friend's dakota r/t, supercharged, off the line... pulling clear infront of a Z06 corvette till about half way through the 1/8th... and more (maybe)...

 

I was told by a drag builder that a conversion could let you pick up a few tenths at least. I was told he built a motor for a guy that ran 14.7's, he put a 3200 stall behind it and dropped into the 14.1 second range. That's friggin amazing! You are border line 14's, maybe on a cold day.........

 

i've got a 2200 in it. a little more convertor probably wouldn't hurt it but this 2200 is better than the stock one was.

 

2200's probably just fine.....you could probably run a 2500, but then you don't wanna over-stall it. Awesome run man....you're SO close to 13's. All you gotta do is nail it down. Wait for a cold day and do some tweaking. Pump a little race fuel in it...some unleaded stuff, they sell 110 unleaded here...maybe a 60-40 or 70-30 mix, and get the timing up a little higher... And get some good tires, deflated to like 20 or 25 psi in the rear and 40 psi in the front.

To have a 14 second V6 F-Body.....N/A....well, that'll probably impress the hell out of anybody that knows anything about these cars.

 

TWO THUMBS UP!!

I thought the gear swap would do something for it, di you get a chance to see what you were taching at the traps? What is your redline/peak power made at with that setup?

Eric

 

Yes! Alan, we gotta get you to CM for a REAL dyno!

 

went through the traps at about 5500 in 3rd. i don't really know where the best power is made but i think its a little lower than that.

 

:hail: :hail: :hail: :hail: Awesome! I dont see any of the v8 trolls talking ish in here now.

 

Thats cause he probably just outran more than half of their 305's.... :lala:

 

i can't wait til i can post the video of my pulling a new vette Z06 off the line! some guy came up to me at a gas station right after i left the track saying that he had a camaro just like mine, white/blue pearl but he had a 305 in it. he didn't say if he had even run it before but he saw me running at the track. him and his buddies were impressed.

 

Those are really good times for that v6 , you have everyone beat big time. I want to see the car when I come down. I feel a club coming on.

 

What I feel is a whole bunch of people eating their hats for the last time they said "put a V8 in it"

 

sounds good, let me know when you're coming. i want to see your truck at some point, too.
