Stroker Performance Review

Okay posting an update. This was the first time to the track since I posted this last August.

We fixed not getting full throttle and put stronger valvesprings in to fix the valve float problems. The only other change was a 1" super sucker spacer and a HV fuel pump and pressure regulator.

Here is a recap of the cars setup
72 Duster. track weight was right around 3350.(not exact)
408, 11.2Cr .039 quench
Strip dominator
800cfm carb (proform race 650 with upgraded main body)
Trickflow heads
Howard 600/615 254/260 108 LSA in at 103.5
Pro magnum 1.5 rockers
Kevko pan
TTI 1 7/8 race headers 18" collector extension
Shifting was ay 6600
Timing was at 36

727 RMVB
Hughest 3500 street/strip converter. If you floor it in 3rd flashes to 4200.

4.10 , 28 Nitto 275/60/15 drag radial
Mancini XHD leaf springs
CE 3way at 90/10 front
CE 3way at 60/40 rear
Pinion snubber.


I really wished we had the slicks and not the drag radials. We were not hooking and the track was packed so only 2 runs. My brothered eased into it on this pass. The first one he spun through 1st and 2nd after nailing it to the floor.

Anyway car is running much better after addressing the issues. I am pretty happy and I am hoping with some testing and figuring things out we can get more out of it. Options are a bit limited without a cage anyway.

Here is the results I posted in the first post last year
