I typically run the 1/8 mile but ran the 1/4 last night and I'm very happy with the results! It went 6.88 at 99.47 and 10.88 at 122.41 on the last pass, previous best in the 1/8 was 7.00 at 98.1. I was surprised at the increase, I changed to a 3.73 from a 4.10 gear since the last time out. Not to bad for a small block pump gas street car at 3400# with driver.

Is it on motor?
whats the combo?

Yes! all motor.

1.49 60'time Excellent time! graemlins/beers.gif Also what cam are you running?

I dont have the part # right off hand but the specs. are Comp Cam 250/260 @50 and 534/555 lift and I run a 1.6 rocker on the intake.

Impressive 60' times! I have a pair of the same tires sitting in the garage waiting to be mounted. Would you recommend them?

graemlins/beers.gif

Killer times man!!! Sounds like a real animal..What wheel and backspacing are you running to fit those tires?? Will they work with 15x8's with 4.5 bs??

graemlins/thumbsup.gif What are your shift points from start to finish? Those Canfield heads work good. Are they stock?

Thanks guys, I'm pretty impressed myself.

Fuji: I highly recommend these tires, not much difference than the ET streets but a little more consistant.

6D9: I run 5" backspacing with a 8.5 " rim and a 1/4 inch spacer to keep from rubbing on the inner fender. I have room on the outer lip so they sbould fit unless you car sits low in the back.

BigRed: I shift at 6500 and cross the line about 6600. I had these heads on a 350 out of the box and broke a rod and damaged some valves, so had a valve job done and some slight bowl work.

NC69RS, Very impressive. graemlins/thumbsup.gif I am building an engine very similar for a friend this winter (same stall, gears, etc) and we were hoping for 11.5's or better.

Was wondering a couple things about that cam . . .

What is your idle speed like? (in gear / neutral)

Do you by chance have a cranking compression number for your engine? Just curious what the 285* advertised duration (if it's the cam I'm thinking about) does with a 106 ICL and pump gas.

Thanks

Motor idles at 950rpm in gear and about 1100rpm out. Sorry, have never checked cranking compression. I had this cam in another 406 in a previous car I owned and liked its performance and sound so much I used it again. I would recommend it.

Nice ET! Is your cam installed advanced? What total timing are you running? That is a pretty high DCR for pump gas, have you tried using or mixing some race gas? What brand torque converter are you running? Sorry for all the questions, thanks.

Lonnie

You ran a 10.88 at 122 with that combo.
If there was no juice-That's stout.

What is the part number of that cam???

Cam is advanced 4 deg., Total timing 35 deg., yes I have mixed with 100 octane unleaded when its summer time and hot and humid. The converter is a TCI 10" RACE.

Cam part # 12-609-5

And yes, NO NITROUS!!!!

NC69 what length rod are you running. Great times and keep up the good work graemlins/beers.gif

Thanks! Crank and rods are eagle forged crank and 6" H-beam, internally balanced with flat tops.

Those numbers are great! Are you using a trans brake or foot braking it? also what rpm do you leave at.

Footbraking, leaving at 3000.

Do you prefer white, or wheat bread? Pepsi, or Dr. Pepper?

Sorry...I just got caught up in all the question askin'...

Excellent times, BTW! graemlins/thumbsup.gif

GeyPoupon or peanut butter :D

Tell me about that chassis set-up and what year car is it?? :rolleyes:

Stock leaf spring, frame connectors, slapper bars, 90/10 fronts and rancho adjustables on the rear. Hoosier QTP tires. Take a guess what year!!!!!!!!

I got it.
It's a 75 :D
