So you beat him!? Does that mean your car is now super fast or his car is not as fast as he's been saying?

was from about the start of the year.

yeh i beat him by .3 on that run if i remember...

that was with my crow cam without a tune. now have headwork (ported, polished, au gasket, shave, blah blah) the 1521a and a tune.

going back to drags in 3 weeks to give her a run.

best of luck!

I know that was the 1/8th mile. but are you hoping for a 13 down the 1/4 ?

good luck at the track. watching thread with interest. my best time to date with similar mods (3.9s, 3000 stall, same cam, headwork, tune, lots of added weight) is a 15.01, with stuffed (60lb seat) valve springs and cam timing issues. i ran slower after "fixing" both of those things, but didnt really get a good run (kept hitting limiter). i think you're on the money with a low 14 with these mods in a properly sorted setup.
