Re: post latest 1/4 and 1/8 mile times and 60ft.

Took mine to Steele this past Sunday. FIrst time for the truck at the track in 5 years. Could not get to run out the back with the too tight converter, and went 1.24 60' 5.61 at 123 mph in the 1/8. Coasted through 1/4 in neutral to a 9.52 et. lol Hope to figure out how to post some videos in the next couple days. Paul Baxter

Sweet Paul. I am glad you got it back to the track. I can't wait to see it run. I am sure you will get all the kinks out!

Which tire were you running?

Re: post latest 1/4 and 1/8 mile times and 60ft.

Thanks guys, We have a lot left in the 60', i am hoping for 1.17-1.18 area, but on 28x10.5's. I had 29.5x10.5 tire on it Sunday. I will have to wait until spring to play again. I did not run the et that I wanted, but it was overall, very pleasing to get those #'s first time out, and bring it home unhurt! Paul Baxter

Re: post latest 1/4 and 1/8 mile times and 60ft.

Paul just curious what your truck weighs?, and what the front rear percentage is now with the new front suspension. Your running 2 kits, have you seen anyone using Jeff Procks (Applied Nitrous Technology) new solenoids? They are really mean on 1 kit LOL. Guys around here love them with a nitrous controller on true 10,5s.
Thanks
Mark

Front should be about 53%, the estimate is based on the weight from before lowering the rear 2 1/2" and adding two full nitrous bottles. Prior to front suspension, and lowering the rear, it was 59% on the front. Truck weighs 3165# with 170# driver. I was only using one system when I ran the #'s above. Had .026 jets in one fogger, and still too fat on fuel. I have not spoken to anyone that has used Prock's solenoids, but will have to do some research, and asking around about them. I did not have a controller on mine, all on at the release of the trans brake. . Feel free to contact me with any questions. Paul

Re: post latest 1/4 and 1/8 mile times and 60ft.

Paul, I cant get over how light your truck is. I basically have the same truck with a fleetside bed, and I figured it would weigh around 3600-3700 lbs. Im checking into acid dipping the cab,doors,and all front sheet metal, and leaving it in the tank a while LOl. I figured about 55% frontal weight. I was going to use a power steering pump ,A/C, alternator, and a vacuum pump. Did you move the engine back? It doesnt look like much if you did.
The guys with the Prock solenoids are using 50 pills on 1 kit. His new solenoid has a bigger inlet on it. It will make about 750 h.p. with that kit. With a controller they run 4.90s to 5.0s on the true 10.5 at 3480 lbs. Were going to try a drag radial with a car at minumum weight like that. Be interesting to see what it does.Thanks Mark

Re: post latest 1/4 and 1/8 mile times and 60ft.

Mark, mine was 59% front weight with a cast block, aluminum head BBC, and stock front suspension converted to rack and pinion steering. Dropped to 54% after replacement of front suspension with chromoly tubular replacement arms, cross member, etc. Then should be less with rear lowered 2 1/2 ", and adding 2 full nitrous bottles in front of the tailgate. It still has all steel except for the hood, all glass except rear window, carpet, 2 seats, factory steering column. At this time, I do not have a bed floor in it, but am considering a 3 piece aluminum floor, and have wood hydrographics applied. I like the sericeability of the rear suspension, when there is no bed floor. I plan to make it removable with dzus fasteners. Hope this helps with any ideas to lose weight. The front suspension was the single largest weight loss, as it weighed 3410 before with driver. Paul

Re: post latest 1/4 and 1/8 mile times and 60ft.

Paul,

You are making me want to spend the money on the front suspension.. I suspect I will be around 3,350lbs with me in the truck after the powerglide swap, backhalf/4-link, loss of my 125lb tailgate, and the addition of the cage. I know my 51/49 weight balance I had at 3,650lbs will be long gone.

But if I could get to 3,150lbs, I might be getting closer to the 9.9x NA goal I have set for 3 years

I can't wait to see yours done, and making passes again. I know you are going to be getting close to your goal. I talked with my chassis man yesterday, and he is concerned about the amount we will be paying for some of the brackets to be mass produced. He wants to take time to do this, and it still be profitable, and fair to the customer. We do not want to exceed our price point. I hope to lay down some strong passes in the spring, and push the issue quickly. I know you will reach your goal soon. Paul

Not only does that truck have a grown man under the hood it packs the tires and sets them down like its the most natural thing you seen!

Re: post latest 1/4 and 1/8 mile times and 60ft.

70 c10.
469 BB. 10:1 with 088 rectangle port heads and a comp cams xm 278. 24-2600 stall th350 and a ford nine inch with 3.50 gears and a spool.28x12.50 et street bias ply. Untuned with a vac secondary 750 holley DP with a proform center section. First time running it at the truck. Running a strip dominator. Through longtubes and 3" exhaust with mufflers. 3rd run trans started over heating and slipping so i went home
13.55 @ 101.1
60 ft 2.019
RT .048

NEXT STEP... taking the strip dominator off for a Performer RPM Air gap. Was running the strip dominator because it was the only rectangle port intake i had at the time. Gonna play with the timing some and change the secondary spring.

I was happy I beat a c6 vette, a new 5.0 mustang on skinnies and drag radials and a new body style camaro ss.

How wide is the rear end housing {housing end to end} and what back spacing are on the wheels of your truck? I am looking to do something similar but may run a smaller tire. Thanks Mark
