Default Finally in the 12's

Well, I finally met my goal last Saturday and made a 12 sec pass. I was runnin 13.1x's all day on a 1.9x 60'. But my last pass I was second in line when they prepped the track for eliminations, so she finally hooked good. 60' was 1.850, 330 was 5.352, 1/8 was 8.255@83.90mph, 1000 was 10.803, and 1/4 was 12.980@103.21. And I went and blew my motor last night

Thanks guys. I have no idea what happened to the motor. The road on my house is full of dirt, so I got on it a little to play around. Only for about 5 seconds. Then it was really hesitant and sounds like it is running on 6 cylinders. It never threw any codes either. It is gonna get ripped apart this winter to see what's wrong. While I'm at it I will strengthen up the bottom end, add some crower cams, meth injection, get the blower ported, and hope for about 460 to 470 at the wheels.

Sounds like a plan. Good luck.
