Default 8.00 1/8. C10

Finally got a chance to get back to the track and had a blast. First pass was just motor and ran a 8.55 @ 78.8 mph with a 1.89 60'. Then second pass was roiling the trottle and spraying after the 60' and ran a 8.00 @ 86.4 mph with a 1.89 60'. Not too bad with only running drag radials.

My old passes before I did a tune up was a 9.1 @ 74.9 mph with a 2 60'. Gonna tear it down over the winter and make some changes. Ready to see what it will do next year

Yes I sprayed the one 180. Only turning 5300 rpm too. I think I was losing some power in the stall. Yes there are some pics up in some of my old threads. Don't have access to a computer till next week

The stall in it now break stalls at 2500 and flashes to 4000. I think it's loose so my buddy have me a hues stall that is a 3600 I'm gonna see what it does.

I used a calculator and I should be in the 12s

Yea sounds like that stall is too loose. A good 3200-3600 should be a lot better, so ur buddies converter should be good. Get those bars built so you can get it to dead hook with the spray, you'll see 1.6-1.5 60', it'll be a fun truck for sure!!

Depends on the route you are wanting to take. Nitrous truck, turbo truck, or blower truck. I had a nice 6-71 BDS blower a couple of years ago for a big block that would have made an insane amount of power lol. Had to sell it tho. Ur lucky to have a wife like that! My gf could give a rats *** about it lol. She likes going fast but complains that I'm always working on the truck Haha.
