That's a good point and was considered. He's got the big Wilwoods on the front and I think disc on the rear. It's my old motor I REworked for someone. Using a modman, AFB's, wet sump, bumped compression to 12:1

It was never on any dyno. I figure so far it's using about 775-780 crank corrected engine dyno. Wallace showed it correcting around there correcting for weather on other runs at 3540lbs. I was interested in knowing the masses general ideas. I'd like to see it touch the 9.5s in stellar air at...

OK not all are reading this correctly but the car at the line weighed 3715. Was adjusted to run 10.0 with weight in about 9% corrected conditions. I was asking what was the corrected HP to gage ET potential. The chart corrects the ET to as low as 9.61 at that weight. There are some other gains...

Is this rear-wheel? 3715# at 9%

Data/information has definitely helped performance evolve. Sometimes it's fun to think how much faster my first deal would have been if I could apply what I am now to what I had. ANOTHER aspect that's helped performance evolve is the SHARING of what works. That's something I never seemed to be...

That's a nice car! Keep working things and it'll get to where you expect.

The WEIGHT wasn't updating correctly but from runs 2 and after it weighed 3715#. How much engine HP is my question? Thanks for your opinions.

No doubt from me you'll get there!

This ALL is good stuff Don! Excited to know you'll be out soon for new bests.

I have the Milodon billet remote filter pump cover and a new old stock 63HV pump that have literally 5 mins run time. I'd sell if you're interested. I also have a HD dist drive with bronze gear which is new. I may have other stuff as well if it helps.

This is all good stuff. Forgive that I don't keep tabs on the combo but offer suggestions. In my mind, the parts combo I thought you had were doing well making 575 with the small cam. In retrospect a high compression, ported aftermarket head 4xx" with a cam better than a flat tappet should make...

Congratulations!!! I'm sorry I missed this post.

OK I didn't realize that. Yes, if he's gotta get his tuned-up, he should aim higher in stall. I'm not sure that'll get him into the 9's but I'd guess the weight being just over 2800? so if there's 575HP somewhere it can get there. If over 2900 then he might need more parts.

...in itself. Changing cams and their respective hardware is pricy in a few ways because the cam profile it'll like is probably going to 'tax' the rockers and pushrods....etc This is a 59* small block. I just mention it all for review to benefit what is practical for the owner given a new...

I was quoting a ?funny/famous? scene from the movie Joe Dirt. I maybe should have more fully typed; It's like the positraction on a Plymouth...it just works.

Nice work! Looking at the one video, the initial hit is still a touch soft. Try some accl pump cams and shooter tuning and you're there! After that, I'd almost leave things alone and hit it with some spray if you want to have more fun. It's proving to be a good combination

Looking good John!

This pic has caused much controversy in debating where to use the prop valve but, it works for me (like a positraction diff)

Run as much hard line as possible! Here is a pic showing how I ran a Tee to cross-over to the pass side. Then flex to the calipers from tabs on the frame. Make sure you avoid any binding or entangling over all movements when routing 'flex' lines.

Engine dyno or chassis? I use Wallace a bunch and think it's a reasonable predictor. Instead of sifting thru the older posts I was hoping he/someone could summarize the info. The best I saw was 104 in 660ft so, knowing he probably hasn't eeked all available MPH from it, that's promising...

Funny but this post never got set yesterday. When I logged-in it was still in the que so, I hit enter...looks like a few have mentioned the same points about video on the tach 'hillbilly data acq". But still I'd be interested to know the weight and MPH in consideration of the weather. I'd also...

Havent watched the vid but it might show 'fall-back' rpm? Yes I'd be curious to run the numbers thru something like Wallace to see where you're at. Weight on the line and MPH are a good start. Based on the little I know, I'd expect the engine parts would make less than 600HP.

Good work Boosted! I agree in what seems to be the theory/direction you are choosing going after the converter. No doubts the motor is making more power because the front half ISN'T there but the 660 ET/MPH is promising! While it might be interesting to know the current ICL, I'd probably leave...

BME 6.76 rods new. JE mini-dome pistons and pins(solid so can be removed) VGC probably can reuse rings. Std/std 440 crank needs 10/10 clean-up. $1200.

440

1970 440 block, Bushed and indexed lifter bores. Comes with RB Aluminum caps and studs. Medium fill hardblock. Standard bore. Magged good. $900

That's Scott "Dizuster"...he's using my old motor for NSS racing now. It was a magnum block and crank with good rods and good pistons. Blow-thru carb e85 and cnc eddy heads and custom hyd roller. Ran 9.55 @ at least 3750lbs. but it was being leaned-on to get there 22-24? pounds and it hurt...

Right? But even the HS that were commonly used back in the day on that cam were close to 1.54RR (which yielded closer to 1.5 in NET) and they worked decent with the Isky 8005. But we all see the actual ratios vary significantly on different rockers. But all these reasons show the OP how this...

Right! Excellent idear.

That might be difficult to find a spring that'll control everything without wiping the cam.
