Nice runs.

Wonder how it would run with a 950hp or a 1050 Dominator on it?

I'd try loading the converter more and see how it reacts. Maybe then go the other way and leave closer to idle. Try it both directions. I know when Brian ran his car, the best launch was loaded at about 3200-3500 against the verter, 10" 3500 stall, barely kept from creeping.

You running rancho 9 ways?

I do too wonder about a bigger carb. If I can find a good, proven 950 to borrow you can bet I'll try it! Although I think it would take more shift RPM than 5,800 to use the added airflow and see in it in the ET.

We are going to experiment with the RPM at the hit and shift point this Friday. Not sure if the little 10" drum brakes will hold it any higher than 2,500 but we'll see...

Rancho 5-ways from the "Flintstone era" of the Cal Trac deal. Hmmmm, guess I better look and see where they're set now that you mention it...
