Re: 1st Trip to the Dragstrip...
The truck has
383, four bolt mains, Keith Black Pistons, Scat crank, PM Rods,
Cleaned up 487X Corvette heads,
Comp 280 cam and 1.6 rockers (.512 total lift, 230 duration),
Edelbrock Performer RPM intake and 1" spacer
modified Holley 750 (choke horn and casting flash removed),
TCI TH400 with a manual valvebody and 2900 stall,
8.5 10-bolt with 3.08 gears and a Detroit Locker.
Traction was by far the limiting factor... I spun through the first two gears easily, but had street pressure in the 275-60-15 Radial T/A's...
