Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
Quote:
I run a solid roller 489 BB, it dynoed at 640HP, 620trq. with a too small 750 carb. I now run a 850 Mighty Demon and have a NOS Cheater system. In ran a 11.72@115 with a 1.72 60' at the last street drags on motor spinning a bit at the start. My coil over springs were a bit too light and I was bottoming out when I launched causing it to bounce. It was hard to get a good run in the other night after the rain it was hot and muggy, I was running 12.01 and not impressed. On the 11.44 I ran a 100shot in second and drive, it was the first time the motor saw nitrous so I ran it rich and backed out some extra timing so I was not expecting that large of a gain. Well low and behold it hooked good and ran a little quicker than planned. I'm pretty sure on a regular race day I would be around the 11.5's to 11.6's on motor. So I'm thinking 10's on a 150 shot should be a reasonable expectation. I too would like to keep the stock appearance, but a roll bar is a must. The truck will all-ways be street legal, but I don't drive it that much and racing gives ME more enjoyment than cruising, so not that worried about the 2 bars going out the back window.

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
Another thing to keep in mind with his truck is that it would even faster closer to see level. What is the altitude in Sask?

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
10.00 and below need sfi sheilds, unless the firewall is not stock. 10.99 and below you need aftermarket axels/or C clip eliminators. 11.49 to 10.00 need a 5 point roll bar and sfi fire jacket.
Here is the online rule book http://members.tripod.com/MY5LTR/NHRArules.html

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
2000 ft is pretty substantial though. According to NHRA's website at sea level you would be running 11.17 @ 120.52 at sea level. This is not really important at your track because obviously everybody is at the same disadvantage. It's just cool to see what would run at a track like Montgomery Motorsports Park or Silver Dollar in Georgia because they are only 400-500 ft. Here is the NHRA's conversion chart if you want to check it out.
http://www.smokemup.com/auto_math/nh...on_factors.php My brother's '78 GMC has run a best of a 11.98 @ 112.11 (7.58 @ 92.86 in 1/8) with a 1.71 60' on motor with much less engine than you have. We'd only be in the mid 12's at your track. Here is link to his truck if you wnat to check it out also. http://www.bassettracing.cz28.com/photo2.html

Nice truck your brother has there, I'm allways interested in checking out other drag trucks. Would be nice to make a couple of passes at a near sea level track. But it is cool when you line up against a 440 procharged Challenger, stripped interior, roll bar, open headers etc. and then the look you get when you beat him, PRICELESS. Icing on the cake is when he asks later how big a shot your running and you tell him that was just motor. ![]()

Thank's, that's a serious cage you got going there, you must be planning on some 9's.

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
yes i would be happy with low 9's since i am running a sbc 383 with nos. my combo might not be as large as yours but i hope it will go the distance.. i built it expecially for nos.. cam pistons and even heads were ported profesionally for nos.. anyways the weight thing is what i am looking at now. thats why i was wandering what your truck weighed.. anyways keep us posted on what your doing cause alot of us wish we were racing...

You know I don't know. I'm running 10.20's on N20 and they haven't said anything about a trans shield. 10.99 on motor alone so I better find out b4 I go to a real track. My track is 550' above sea level but the DA is always over 4000' I know I could get into the 9s but I'm not licenced or the truck isn't speced to run below 10.00

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
What's yours weigh again, and are launching on a trans brake? I'd love to be running 10's on motor, doubt I'll ever run as fast as you. I,d have to lighten it up for sure, or go to a 540 next re-build, just need the block and pistons.
Do you have a DA chart, or how do you figure that?

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
3500 wit my fat azz. I leave on a brake chipped at 4000rpm with a 5500 stall. 4.86 gears with 32x14-15 slicks. Im swappin converters this week. Going with a 8" ATI instead of the 300 dollar Torco. I'll see if it picks up as much as I think. In bracket mode I leave easier and short shift and run 11.33 at 115. It just dosen't MPH good at all. I will be going BBC next year.

Re: Ran 11.44 @117.69mph
what you going through the traps at? Motor and with nitrous, I was going to go to a 31" tall tire and a 4.30 gear. I have a 29" and 4.10's now, go through at just under 6000? ( have to run on a better night to make sure ). When I ran 28" tires it was going through at 6200. I'd like to take off 200lbs. to make up for my fat azz LOL.

We are planning on a cage in future for his truck, because with the cheater shot, he is creeping up on high 10's. We are going to freshen up the engine this fall, and probably go with a solid roller. Here are a few old scanned pics when we built the truck. It was STUPID FUN driving it around with the front clip and bed off!!
