Got off work last night @ 6pm and headed straight to the track.

was about 60degrees when i got there.
track was hooking really good.

maybe 3 runs immediatly one after the other to see whether or not i had the same problems as blade with time falling off-

i heated up my "tire" every run. on some of the burnouts it woudl spin both which was weird..... i dunno....


the set-up is the same as before-
rearmount turbo 11psi intercooled
**** kit/vette servos
lakewood traction bars
falken ziex tires (275-60-17 on the rear)
heavy *** wheels
march underdrive pullies
not tuned
open diffrential
3.42 gears-
FULL WEIGHT
valve covers never been off the truck

first run-
8.58 @ 81.5mph (2.01 60')
Second-
8.54 @ 80mph (1.99 60')
Third-
8.7 @ 80mph (2.11 60')

so it runs pretty consistant and those runs where made within 5 to 8 minutes of each other.... the track doesnt get busy until about 8:30.


then i let it sit for about 30 minutes and pushed it through the staging lanes-

engine temps @ 170 f* on all the next runs

Run 4- heated up the tires staged with 2pi, cut a good light (.60 r/t)
1/8th mile- 8.37
1/8th mph- 80mph

run 5- same thing as above
1/8th mile - 8.50
1/8th mph- 80.2mph

Run 6- same
1/8th mile- 8.34 (i think that this is correct-i dont have the time slips with me- i ran an 8.3 twice though)

1/8th mph- 80 (once again not to sure since i dont have my time slips with me


so 8.3's are really close if not in the 12's.........

gonna post up timeslips 2night after i get off work.

 

its hard to judge actually. you can get an average but not all rides are the same. some make more ground up on the lowend where as some make more ground up on topend

 

yeah stock cam & torque converter aint helpin the topend.... but i stay right on stock ls1 gto's- actually beat them to around 90-95mph.... then they start catching me. so i dont think my top end is to bad.
