Man, she sounds sweet! Looks like it yawed sideways a bit coming out of the hole. Bet she'll run some 9's with a little bit of fine tuning. What RPM do you cross the line at?

Awesome guys! Keep them coming!!!

In 2001 I raced a '67 chevelle and won the local track championship-the guy that finished number 2 was a pretty good friend-he had a '68 camaro which I have duplicated entirely-I bought the motor carburetor to pan he used that year as he went 'fast street car racing' in 2002 and built a BBC for his car and offered his 406 to me first-I am building a '68 that will be absolutely identical to his-same gear, exhaust, wheels and tires-the only difference honestly is his was black, mine is Lemans Blue I also bough the torque converter he used.

His car-
'68 with a 406 sbc, factory crank, chevrolet 5.7 rods, 11-1 KB hypereutectics, all balanced. Dart Iron Eagle 215 heads untouched, custom solid flat tappet (only spec I recall is duration at 50 thou is 254), 1.6 roller rockers, comp pushrods, victor jr intake, holley 850 DP, pete jackson gear drive, MSD ignition, 1.75 hookers (all beat up)...

Dynoed at 548 HP.

car was all steel, real glass, full interior, slapper bars and 6 point roll bar ,3500 stall that has been 'worked on'-probably 3800 now. 3inch pipes w/flowmasters.

Rear was Ford 9 inch with 4.10s with a spool.

Went 10.96@122. 6.95 in the eigth, 1.51 60 foot.

420 RWHP.

My car is all steel, full interior, will have a cro-moly 6 point, already put the Cal Tracs on it, replaced all the exterior body.I will likely use Doug's Headers 1.75 inch primaries. 3 inch pipes w/ flowmasters.

The 406 is at a race engine shop now, being poked and stroked to 434 (maybe 436, we may go 040 over), using a Scat assembly with SSRP pistons. May open up the ports just a tad. we are ordering a duplicate of the cam, when I get the specs I will post them here.

He did use an electric fuel pump and water pump-I will likely use a mechanical fuel pump, maybe an electric water pump but not sure.

If there is a little money left over from the engine build I hope to put it on the dyno and wring it out. If I do, I will put up the results. Should be ready for the track in early January.

Forgot to add-he used a THM 350, so am I-

OK thats a lot of nice mice there.:boring:

Whos got a RAT!?! :cool:









good numbers btw...:p

Is your car in minitubbed? If your car is not minitubbed what is the offset of the wheels?

The camaro. I am curerrently trying figure out the correct backspacing to fit a 28x10.5 on my car without modification to my fanderwells. my other thread was quite helpful. I am trying to get as many peoples combinations as possible before making the purchase of wheels. Thank you sir.

You should not have problems fitting a 10.5" tire. I fit a 28x12.5" tire on a 15x8 Prostar with no issues. Good luck.

I haven't run the car in the quarter yet, but I'm pretty sure it will squeak in the 10's based on the 1/8th mile times ;) Times in sig.

138 mph :eek: letting off?? There must be spray or boost involved:confused:

---Bill.

Well, maybe a little boost...;)

i do believe that nitro rocket has a twin turbo ls1 chevelle

A lot of people have twin things on there cars, what does that matter?
Twin exhaust, twin axles, twin pumpers, twin headers, etc.


Here is a vid, kinda tiny. I was running 19 psi, a little fat, on 315/35/17" BFG drag radials. I let off after the car started popping at about the 1100' mark, I was alrady hitting the brakes as the win light came on. I was pretty Pi**ed off, I have never got to make a full pass yet to to first a blown torque converter, then, only running a 3.42 gear instead of a 3.08. Oh, well, next time.

Well, maybe a little boost...;)

A little boost :confused:, 19#s :cool:

Good job, I really like it when it's all under a stock looking hood :thumbsup:

---Bill.

I say a little bosot because that is only on 93 octane, a 26 psi race gas run would be "high" boost!! How much boost are you running??

Here are a couple videos from the last couple years:

What heads?? I have had a ton of 383's, if you combo matches mine, I could guestimate pretty close. Is that duration at .050? Solid roller? What heads?

600-650Hp sounds like a bit much for that combo. Could you post the whole motors specs??

If that duration is at .50 thou, that is the equivalent of a Pro Stock cam,lol.


Anyway, if you have a 'big 10 bolt' you will probably be okay if you have aftermarket axles. I think the pinion gear on a big 10 is actually bigger than a 12 bolt passenger rear......

Blazerbob, what do you mean by "way to small Holley 950 but dont want to go 9's secs so keep it" Thanks

A 950 is pretty small for a 500" motor is what he means I am sure.

nitrorocket,

So if bob went with a bigger carb. he would see 9's?

I don't know what his trap speeds are. A carb won't make a person go 9's unless he is purely only power limited and not limited by traction.

Look at me I have a ton of pwer but will likely never go 9's because my car could never hook.

also what kind of after market axles should i get?

I would guestimate close right around 550 hp. good combo. Should go mid 11's at about 118ish mph in a 3400lb car.

Guys with similar combos of mine are dipping into the 9's and are also running Doms with proven 20 more HP especially with AFR heads, compression, and gears that I have!
I have a good fuel system though would like to do my own gph test to see what its actually producing. My 60fts are 1.35 range yet mph at 130-something is just a little off so need to sort it out. I'm torn bout running 9's and having to license, engine girdles, doctors tests every 2 yrs. etc. Much easier just running 10's if you know what I mean without all the hassle!

Bob

Bill thanks for the informative web site. I lived in Riverside 69-74 and knew a Peter Unruh from St. Helena, CA in the 60's. You obviously have at least a 10sec if not faster car so are probable well informed with your business.
Thanks,

Just clicked off my personal best 10.01 @ 131.6 with a small shot of squeeze and mid/high 10's on the motor. It'll run in the 9.90's, the 10.01 was hurt. Think I popped a ring land off a KB piston. Never knew what the top gaps were set at because I got the motor in a trade. I've been running a small shot of squeeze for a few years now and bumped it up another 50 on the 10.01 run but beofre the run was done it dropped a cylinder.

For axles there are a few companies that make good stuff. Moser, Strange, and Mark Williams all make stuff that will work well for you. Me personally I have used 33 spline Mosers in a 12 blt, worked fine for me.

Ya Bob, cut my teeth on the drag strip at Riverside (It's the Moreno Valley mall now). It was the early 70s, in my first 68 Camaro, rally green, 327 stick car. Also meet my wife of 33 years cruising Magnolia in that car, summer 1974.
Where you in any of the car clubs back then, Seagrams, Camaro/Chevelle, Street Iron, or maybe Riverside Foreign CC with that Jag?
I remember Super shops well, got a lot of parts from them and J&M speed center. remember them? J&M is still around, they moved to the auto center.
I don't recall your Chevelle. There was Leonard Deans nasty white 68 BB stick car, and my buddy had a blue SS 396 69 stick Chevelle that ran 12's.
...Ah memories...

---Bill.

Bill, thanks for sharing those memories of Riverside! Summer of 74' was my last summer in Riverside before moving to Loma Linda and going to school there. No I wasn't in any of the car clubs, just street racing on Magnolia and out past Fairmount Park! Yea, those were the days huh?!
