Waiting till the snow flies to get something started?...
..
I would think..... new heads, carbs, and a bottle. If that won't push the tunnel ram 410 stroker into the 11's then it's time to throw in the towel. lol
well, I wasn't going to say it, but to me that is throwing in the towel lolThat bottle thing is cheatin'.
OFF topic, but look at this guys dash light

I'm hoping to get into the 11's without "the bottle"...
The nitrous was just pretty much like everything on my car just because I wanted aluminum heads I wanted a clutch Tamer I wanted dual quads I want I want I want LOL...
I'm more see the nitrous as a "watch this" kind of thing with my friends out on the back roads not to try and get a better ET...

Where there's a will there's a way LOL nice map light...
Well, like it told you last year, you had the speed which means you were making enough power, just a matter of getting the car to work
You don't need the juice for 11's. save that for the 10's.
Your car was just a couple parts away from 10's in racing trim. without nitrous.

I'll say it for the 17th time here the nitrous is just for a watch this moment out on the back roads.. I don't have the correct ring gaps to go over a 150 shot... Anything more would be just stupid...
It will likely just be more for show than go..
I haven't got a ricer two step up to the line with me at a light yet, and I assume a nitrous Purge would stomp out any thought of it...
sounds to me like a couple sneaky pete kits would fit the bill. screw the scare tactics. lol
wow, just looked at the polls. People want to see the SM heads on the stock 360.. I do too.... LOL
no love for the van
no love for the van
Tries to talk em out of it before it happens.... PUFF'n and BLUFF'n.
What's he gonna do when they call his bluff? ? ? ?"I don't care if you know karate, kung fu and six other Japanese words, step outside"
That is the rare “Business Man’s” option for the Monaco.
Intermingled with my everyday life which consists of trying to keep the daily drivers on the road my plan not in any particular order is.
Go to Indy swap meet in March
Go to HemiSS Rockford swapmeet in April
Get the Hillbilly(76 Dart) to the track.
Do some swapping with 318wr.
Change or modify motor in Hillbilly.
Swap engine in Little Red.
Continue never ending work on trucks.
Buy or trade for enclosed trailer.
During all this, fix house up next door and move in it.
I have plenty to do.

When my Dad was racing his 79 Cordoba regularly, the tow vehicle was a 77 B200 long wheelbase van.
The kind with the taller fiberglass roof, fully shag carpeted interior, captains chairs for seats, etc.
We re-ringed a 360, added some headers, Ede performer intake, 600 Holley, Comp 268H cam.
We used a B&M weighted flex plate and retained the stock converter that was behind the original 318 that came in the van.
L60-15 rear tires and 3.23(3.21??) gears.
One time at the track there was an issue with the Cordoba that prevented him from being able to race it, so he unhooked the trailer from the van and ran it in the street class.
15.60’s....... I don’t remember the speed.
That’s over a second quicker than a 1986 Monte Carlo SS I had with the HO 305 and 3.73’s.
Be interesting to see how 318wills van stacks up.
My vote for the first test where actual work is required is the SM head swap on the 360.

We were pretty surprised at how quick it was.
My 900 mile old short bed 2wd , 3.9 Magnum, 5 speed, 3.21 rear 93 Dakota Sport ran 16.20’s(mid-80’s for speed iirc).

I plan to be at HemiSS swap meet too. coming fast, just a little over 2 months away
And Cordova swap meet and spring warm up will be the same month I see the Van making it's first pass that day...
Probably don't work, someone left the key on.
