best time yesterday!
But the leaf spring car needs some tunning/small changes to pick up a couple tenths. There is some time lost in the way it is now. It's not working the way it should esp. with the hp it has. would love to hear the setup. Maybe we could help without spending any or very little $$$. Just some wrenching.
not sure what to list but here's what I know:
360 (internally balanced cast crank stock stroke)
Brodix heads (unported I think)
Mopar Purple Shaft (unknown spec) mechanical
new Comp Cams springs, the old ones broke an inner spring
Mopar roller rockers 1.5 (.028/.032 hot)
MSD ignition, 7al with pro tower coil, MSD dist. set at 40deg (not sure
what rpm its all in at though). NGK plugs (dont remember the gap, maybe .040")
ROSS pistons set to zero deck height (dont know compression, I didnt cc the heads or do exact measurements)
Z-gap rings (dont remember what the ring gaps were)
H-beam rods (dont remember the brand, it had Childs & Albert aluminums)
Mopar air gap intake
950HP holley with stock rear jets, went down 2 sizes (I think they are 77's now) in primary because plugs were black/dark, now they are tan.
unknown headers, look like big tubes 1-7/8"??
BG fuel pump set at 8psi idle (I just resealed the pump)
"purple" fuel purchased at the track, 110octane?
VR1 20w/50
904 w/8" converter unknown, but flashes to 5300rpm
has manual reverse Cheetah valve body
unknown clutches/internals
I just changed the fluid and filter (even though the guy said it sat for 3 years)
TCI shifter
type-F fluid
Ferd 9" with 4:88 posi
31x13-15 Goodyears (too big I think, but came with car)
11psi
not sure what leaf springs are in it.
has adjustable front and rear shocks (have a red dial with numbers) but
I dont know what to adjust them to, so I left them where they were.
launch at 3800
shift at (usually) 6800
last race of the night the wife told me to rev it higher (because I told her it felt like it still pulled pretty good) so after I explained to her that if I blew the 360, because she told me too, that we would go bigger and better....she said do it!
sooo, the last run I went to 7500 and did 10.84 @ 123.09
slightly more mph.
like I said, not sure what else to list.
but any suggestions would be awesome!
thanks:burnout:
