Last Wednesday I made it out to the track for the first time. I went 12.77 @ 109, 2.06 60ft right off the trailer, with some tuning, tire pressure adjustments and launch practice I got down to 12.14 @ 111 1.76 60ft. The weather was horrible, 95* and sticky. IAT's where at 180* by the top end.

Fast forward to Friday, I went back later in the evening to take advantage of the cooler air, 80* 50% humidity. Went 12.01 @ 112 off the trailer, tuned some more and eventually it cooled down to 70*ish and she clicked off a 11.79 @ 114.5, 1.71 60ft. 160* IAT still however.

This week I am hogging the throttle body out and going to head back next Friday to see what was gained.

Car weighs 3850lbs with me in it, 93 pump gas and I daily drive it with an average of 20mpg highway 14 city

 

Car looked great in person, super cool build for sure!!! Nicely done on the 11 second pass you beat that 11.9 goal by a good bit. E85 and a 3" pulley and that thing will really fly. I see a low 11 second pass in your future haha.

 

Nice work! Glad you got it running!

 

damn man i hope my lq4 runs like that

 

Those IATS are killing you, good runs considering everything else though.

 

thought about Meth injection?

awesome car none the less!!!

 

Nice times man, car looks really good. You should post some pics of it with all the black wheels on, every time I see it you have the drag tires on back.

Your going to be a thousand pounds heavier and hurting more on the IATs. lol

 

Very cool! I have similar plans for my '70 Lemans. One day?? Does the hood fit with the 6.0 and maggie?

 

Bad ***. One thing I love is the sound of them fukin things. Is this a stock bottom end lsx??
