My search for a shorty D100 is over

I’ll have more to update after today but I’ll drop a few pics from the last few days. Other than just driving the truck I’ve been thrashing on the tune up stuff to get ready for an opportunity to get it on the rollers at westech. @Turbo440Dart and I have been offered some dyno time so I’m taking advantage of it. The N20 is wired and ready and the carb tune up is dialed. Driving it there and back. Cross your fingers for my poor 8-1/4 rear.

Looks like a ball. Will be fun on dyno and at the drags. Keep us posted!
 
Pretty beat up, but moving around some. I hate sitting still, so there is that on top of all.

I’m the same but I always regret not letting my body heal properly so make sure you do that. Just relax and try to enjoy the down time.

I definitely am. Just sore from operation and sore from sitting around. I am being have.
 
Made to westech. Nitrous hits definitely did (not) happen on the freeway this morning.

Today was good day fellas. There are no hot oily magnum parts on the floor of the dyno so everything else is a bonus. We tugged on this thing more than a few times and it never complained. We made a few soft tuning pulls and it kept picking up power with more fuel so we kept throwing fuel at it. Ran it at 34 degrees for all of the NA runs and the plugs looked awesome. I am extreme happy with this little 300 crate engine . This thing was on the engine dyno about 3 years ago in this configuration, 212 comp cam, rpm air gap, 750dp, and made 365hp to the crank. Today it made 304hp and 390lb/ft to the tire. That’s about 50 more than I expected. Then we sprayed with 100 shot and it picked up a bunch. 388hp and 427lb/ft. It’s a little fat on the n20, down around 10:1 afr so it could pick up a bit more pulling some fuel jet out of the plate but I couldn’t be happier. I’ll tune it a little more on the track in Tucson in a month and dial it in a little better. All in all, a very good dyno day. The one pic I took of the plug was after two nitrous pulls.

My girl always snaps pictures of me at the most awkward time. For some reason this one I’m good with.

Were those new spark plugs at the beginning of the dyno pulls or do they have drive time on them before the pulls?
