100 shot 360@5900 495 TQ @ 3200
150 shot 380@ 5900 585TQ @ 3300

Drag strip was 3 passes
1st motor with good burnout @ 180 deg. manually shifting @ 5900
60FT-1.85
594FT-7.61
1/8 ET 8.13
1/8 MPH 87
1/4 12.63
1/4 109

100 shot
60FT-1.55
594-6.75
1/8-7.23
1/8-94.55
1/4-11.38
1/4-118
3rd motor pass no burnout, car shifting by it's self @ 4500..160 deg.
60-1.77
594-7.62
1/8-8.16
1/8-83
1/4-12.81
1/4-107

car crosses at 4600RPM on motor and 4800 on the 100 shot.

all motor passes @ 35total( as that's what the dyno liked) I didn't spray the 150 due to the stock D-36 and the already 1.55 60 ft with the 100 shot.

Very nice. I'm working on something similar to that with my Wife's 92 Camaro RS weekend fun car.

My combo's a bunch milder than yours, and I built it out of parts I had laying around from other projects: 355, 9:1 compression with flattops and 72cc Dart Iron Eagle heads, Crane 216/216 on 112 LSA flat tappet hydraulic cam, Holley 600 vac sec carb rebuilt by yours truly, Performer (non-RPM) intake, 1-5/8" shortie headers and 3" exhaust, recurved but stock HEI distributor, stock trans with stock converter, 2.73 peg leg rear. 13.6 @ 104.5 so far on a lousy 2.1 60 foot time. I would estimate I'm making about 320HP at the flywheel.

I just isntalled 4.10s, a posi and some DRs on the back. My calibrated butt tells me that's gonna be worth 3-4 tenths and maybe just a smidge more MPH, putting me hopefully in the low 13s.

After that will be the trans rebuild (it's shifting REALLLLLLLLY slow and mushy since it's the original trans with 200K miles on it). I'll definitely throw a higher stall (~2500) converter in it at the same time. I might be able to squeak a 12.99 out of it with these mods.

Last will be The Juice. Nothing special- 125 horse plate shot. If the cheap "spare parts" motor and 7.5" rear holds together I should be able to crack and 11.99 with it. Not bad considering I'll still have under $5000 in it, including the purchase price of the car!

that's a good combo.

i have $6200 total in my car now.

As for spray i have a cheater kit, nothing special, actually it's a cheater plate and the rest of the kit is home made. the fuel solenoid is on the firewall and the nitrous solenoid is up by the RAD. they stay cool there and still hit plenty hard.

I need a D-44 with 3.45 gears
