Finally got this 418 dialed in.
Ran a couple lousy 11's with wheel hop then bad wheel spin and up in smoke.
17 psi hot in the Hoosiers was the magic number Friday.
Ran a 10.965, a 10.935, and a best of 10.904 @ 123+ mph on a new best sixty of 1.52
Thanks...I am not quite done yet.
Shift points were 7200 and 6700 on the 2-3 shift. I need to back off to maybe 7k or maybe even 7100 rpm, then up my 2-3 to the same.
My shift drops were way up in the 5300 rpm range. Crazy compared to what I am used to with the 402...shifting at 6050 rpm and dropping to 4800.
I need to hit a good air day and do it again.
Suspension is pretty much done. Slow-moe on vid shows perfect wheel spin on launch. I would need more power to get lower. I was at 501 rwhp and then dropped compression from 13.2 to 12.1 so I know I am south of 500 rwhp. This time I had every thing in full street trim except tires. Full interior, bumpers, tail gate, and exhaust.
