Is it manual or auto?

Is 300 hp atainable while running on premium pump gas or?
Best of luck with it mark!

12.04 @ 109 Maryland International Raceway
7.68 @ Colonial Beach Raceway, Virginia

Should hit high 11's next Sat at the Mopar Meet at MIR.
 
spun tires though 1st,2nd & 3rd till I hooked in 4th and ran 13.86 @104.43

A 340 4spd 3300lb real street car driven to the track an hour away in 90* weather on street pizza cutter tires

Ran at fontana mopar shootout 08'

thats the last time I ran.

I think the trap rpm was like 5600, didn't have a tach but ran it through a formula of tire/gear/final drive/mph.

Now that I have a 410ci stroker, I'll probably run a lot faster with less gear and the same pizza cutters.lol
 
Got my best last Thursday nite at Irwindale,2nd pass on new motor,then got kicked out for going too fast without a roll bar,7.258 in the 1/8th,,,,All motor SLANT SIX.62 Valiant chop top.Guzzi Mark
 
Lessee here...

Last time I was out, the car ran:

13.869 @ 99.71 MPH with a 2.00 60ft

Found out just over the past week or so that this was run on just the primaries (secondaries weren't opening) and a distributor with screwed up mechanical advance (stuck!), which is beyond repair.

I've swapped out the vac sec carb for a DP and my new dizzy shows up tomorrow. Hoping to take it out again on Sunday.
:burnout:
 
11.20 1960 galaxy, 390 ci, with some 406 parts. So dump on me; broke, can't get the 70 Duster on the road. But I had to be making serious hp, with that tank. (1969). lol
 
Best ET so far was a 14.8 @ 96 MPH. This was years ago, but once I get it back together I am hoping for mid 13's. That won't have a chance of happening until next year sadly.
 
11.54 @ 115.5mph 1.66 60' time No N2O, BFG Drag radials, and 4.10s
 
62 Valiant 10.70-123, 3.79 stroked 340 with J heads
Converting to street car right now, and adding a plate system.
70 Challenger 8.92-149, Edelbrock RPM Headed, Solid Cam 440 2 stage plate system.
